Second Pro-Life talk in Hobart.

Part of the audiance monday evening

On Sunday I got to share my testimony in Hobart.

On Monday , 26 Nov , I spoke at an evening meeting in Hobart organised by the
pro-life group here in Tasmania . ( Human Life Protection Society ). To my delight some
35 people attended. I showed the latest SPUC schools presentation. Moves are afoot for me to train speakers to present this in Tasmanian High schools.

Sunday after next I shall be preaching in Sandy Bay Baptist Church , Hobart.

Today is exactly 32 years since I was converted , praise God.

Tasmania

I am in Hobart for a few days , have been meeting friends and relatives .

Tomorrow , Sunday , I shall attend " Church with no walls " and may be permitted to share my testimony there.

On Monday evening the pro-life group here is having me speak again .
Please pray for a big turnout.

Another good day out fishing

t
 Today was another memorable day out in Keith's boat catching a few ( 15 ) Australian Salmon and other delicious edibles from the sea.

The pictures tell the story.

Today I spoke to members of the human Life protection Society , this is the pro-life group I worked with 20 years ago.

I went through the new SPUC schools talk on pro-life issues. It was great to meet some old friends again.

I may be providing some other help soon.

The fishing was good

A nice 4 lb salmon

Tomorrow , Monday , I shall be speaking to people in the Human Life Protection Society . This is the Tasmania pro-life group that I was involved with in the early 1990s. I shall be showing them the new SPUC  pro-life schools presentation.

As you can see from the photos opposite the fishing on Bruny Island has been going very well. It was most satisfying to catch a 5 pound crayfish , just like I used to 34 years ago.

 The salmon was caught in a 50 yd net, which is much easier than using a rod and fly.

Early next week  we will be busy catching fish for a men's dinner on Wednesday evening

How to feed the poor

Bruce French - Food Plants International

Last night there were eight people at my talk on the UN.

Today I went sight seeing, then met Bruce French.
This amazing man who lives in Burnie has since the mid 1960s been making a database of the edible plants of the world. He lists their nutritional value and how best to cook them as well as how to grow them.

Bruce believes, as I do, that there is more than enough potential to feed everyone well in the world. To date he has catalogued around 25,000 edible plants. He can show many countries which local plants can be eaten along with the nutritional value.

A good half days fishing

My brother Keith in his boat

 

Yesterday my brother Keith and I went fishing on Little Taylors Bay, Bruny Island where we both grew up. We went to the little reef and landed four good cod. Then we moved to the Yellow Bluff to try for some flat head but only got a gurnard. Then we motored along past the Quarries and caught some cocky salmon. After this we went back to the big reef and got some flathead. All the little ones got thrown back. We had a great feast that night with three Dutch visitors.

 

I am now in Burnie, NW Tasmania and will be speaking about my work at the UN tomorrow evening.

The catch: bottom to top - Salmon , Gurnard , Cod , Flathead

Preaching this morning - Queensland

Preached this morning in Dunamis Church, Tanah Merah Campus. This is in a southern suburb of Brisbane the capital of the Australian state Queensland.

Some 200 + people attended and 33 people agreed to take my prayer e-mails.

Prayed with several people after the service.

A wonderful response to my pro-life sermon.

Fishing in Queensland

This was the sad state of affairs yesterday , that was the biggest one I caught. He was thrown back after the photo op.
