Many received our testimony with joy and some were inspired to start along the challenging pathway to radical change. We walked with them. The Clayton Fellowship of South Eastern Melbourne decided to follow in the footsteps of the Shiloh Fellowship of Auckland, New Zealand and pursue dramatic and painful change. Of course, not everyone could manage to stay part of the process, but as grace, patience, and love were extended, the essential core group was maintained. Open acknowledgment of apostolic ministry involvement was an important factor in achieving stability.
People interact, visit, touch and bless one another.
There are a few Body Ministry fellowship-type expressions for those who desire that kind of interaction at the weekend. There is a network of open homes available on week nights three or four times each month. Joyce and I flow in all three expressions when we are in Melbourne relating, teaching, guiding and counseling individuals, families, and groups. We plan to have two wonderful days conferring. Diversity of culture is not wrong, but all cultures will have some aspects in conflict with the kingdom of God.
