Annual Pastors' Breakfast

By Sarah Kelly
Last Thursday, we hosted the annual Pastors Breakfast. This is an event aiming to say thank you to the church leaders for their support of our school families, as well as strengthen our ties with them. We are so grateful for the work they do - so we hold a breakfast to tell them this!
This year we had representatives from The Church at 1330, Belgrave South Baptist, TLC, Hope in the Hills, Discovery, Empower, Fruitful Vine, Knox Community Baptist Church, Holy Transfiguration Church (Belgrave Heights), Open House and Ringwood Church of Christ. This is the 10th year we've run this event, and it was fantastic to meet some new faces and reconnect with others who have come for many years.
Brianna D and Mietta J led us in a worship song, the Coyne family provided some beautiful entertainment of hymns specially arranged for all 5 Coyne siblings ('The Heart of Worship' was especially moving!), Adam Messenger led the morning and Nick Crawley shared some encouraging stories of students' faith journeys. As always, we were very well-fed by Rowena Kohinga and her Hospitality Team - Well done all!
We finished up with a time of prayer, praying for a time of connection, support and mutual understanding of each others' ministries. I especially enjoyed hearing the student leaders pray for the pastors.
If you're new to BHCS, or have recently moved churches, we'd love to check that your church leaders are on our mailing list for this event. Please contact me at
