2011 Pastors and Leaders ConferenCeThe theme of our National Pastors and Leaders

Conference in May 2011 was GO! – 21st Century

Evangelism and our selection of experienced CRC

speakers powerfully challenged us to get fully

aligned with Jesus' Great Commission. The DVDs

of all the sessions are available and they are an

excellent equipping resource for your churches.

new LoCaL ChurCh ModeL ConstitutionIt was during the 2011 conference that the Local

Church Draft Constitution was presented and

accepted by the National Council as the model

Constitution for new CRC churches and a guideline

for existing churches. Several churches have

now adopted this as their governing document

and others are going through the process in

consultation with their State Executives. I am

so pleased with the best possible governance

practices and ministry principles contained in this

constitution and it’s so proactive in balancing our

autonomous-interdependent ethos as a family

of churches. Many thanks to the Team that did a

huge amount of work to produce this excellent

document (Pastors Bruce Sharman, Neil Milne,

Mike Cronin, Norm Reed and Nathan Bettcher).

austraLian Missions offiCe Pastor Mike Groom (Senior Minister of Waurn Ponds

Community Church) who was doing an excellent

job as Australian Missions Director felt it was time

for him to let go of this National responsibility. I am

so thankful that Pastor Mike Cronin accepted this

crucial position as Australian Missions Director

when we approached him. Mike has a wealth of

experience as a former Victorian State Chairman

and our National Chairman between 1988-1996

and, along with his wife Lois, has a passionate

heart for international missions. Please read of

the positive things happening across the world

in our PULSE magazine (available on the CRC

Missions website) and also from Mike’s report

in this update. The Missions Office has now

transferred to South Eastern Christian Centre,

although Judi Shirley continues in her role at the

Finance Office (still located at Waurn Ponds).

National ChairmanIt’s a joy serving Jesus through our CRC

movement and to share with you about our journey since our last National gathering.

CrC ChurChes internationaL 1

I would like to extend my personal thanks to Pastor

Mike Groom for overseeing this area and also

to Judi Shirley who assists greatly in practically

facilitating our International Missions Vision.

PoLoso faMiLy uPdateWe shared with you in March that Pastor Nathan

Poloso (our former Chairman in the Solomon

Islands) was granted a permanent residency visa

here in Australia. This has been an answer to prayer

and a testimony to the faith and perseverance

of Nathan, his wife Lydia, their two boys and

Pastor Mike Groom, who has been supporting

them since Nathan’s medical condition meant

that he had to stay here in Australia to stay alive.

This means that Nathan’s medical costs for his

dialysis treatment is now covered by Medicare.

We’re now working to eliminate the $211,000 debt

incurred at covering Nathan’s medical and living

expenses before his permanent residency was

granted. I so am grateful that so many of you have

contributed towards this debt and I encourage

all our CRC Churches to prayerfully consider

giving so that we can eliminate this debt that our

Missions account is carrying as soon as possible.

CoLoMbo ProjeCt uPdateThanks also to the many churches who have

been contributing towards the Colombo

Project. Contributions received to date have

almost covered the land purchase and we will

soon be in a position to start building! We will

share further on this at the convention and

post updates as things start to happen.

wider ConneCtions An interesting development for me has been

the invitation to connect with two Apostolic

organisations. Firstly, I was invited by Bishop Dag

Heward-Mills to join his ‘Healing Jesus Crusade’

Board, which is a great honour and opportunity

for the CRC to connect and learn from what I

estimate to be the most influential evangelical

force in Africa right now, next to Reinhard Bonnke.

Dag’s denomination called Lighthouse Chapel

International, have planted over 1200 churches

in the last 24 years, which is pretty amazing and

I’m gaining a lot of insight by visiting Accra Ghana

each year for the Board gathering and to share at

their massive Iron Sharpeneth Iron Conference,

which had 20,000 attend the night rallies.

I was also invited to join the Empowered21

Oceania Cabinet. This is an International initiative

(endorsed by the Pentecostal World Fellowship

of which the CRC is also a member) with the

audacious goal, ‘That every person on Earth would

have an authentic, life transforming, encounter

with the Presence and Power of the Living God by

2033.’ Let’s reclaim Pentecost Sunday as churches

and make it an annual focus in the CRC that will

see many thousands of people get Born Again

and receive the Baptism in the Holy Spirit.

affiLiation reforMsSadly over the last 12 months, we have had

four Victorian churches disaffiliate from our

denominational family. This has been a difficult

and unpleasant process, but it has made us

aware that we need to implement some positive

reforms that will strengthen our fellowship

connections as a family of churches.

2012 rise uP – internationaL PeoPLes ConventionI trust that as we explore the theme of discipleship

together, we will experience fruitful growth as we

rededicate ourselves to be fully devoted followers

of Christ. Our guest speakers in Jackie Pullinger,

Paul Scanlon and Harvey Carey are sure to leave

an indelible impact on us with their unique and

powerful testimonies of how God has used each of

them. In particular I’m looking forward to hearing

the good news stories from across the CRC world.

2013 revivaLNext year, our National Pastors and Leaders

Conference will be all about REVIVAL – in our

personal lives, our churches and across our

world. Some new aspects we are planning for this

event will be a training stream for kids and youth

leaders, an afternoon-evening program along

with the launch of our third Australian Strategic

Directions 2013-2018. Take full advantage of the

early-bird discounts and join us at Kingston

City Church, Melbourne on October 2-4, 2013.

At our National Council meeting on Sept 27th, we

will be holding National Executive elections. I am

half way through my four-year term as Chairman

and our State Chairs (Pastor Bruce Sharman,

Victoria; Pastor Hans Voortman, SA/NT/WA; Pastor

Vicki Gilchrist, NSW/QLD/ACT; Pastor Greg Jones,

TAS) are automatically voted on as has been our

practice for several years. Pastor Bruce Sharman

is again standing for the position of National

Vice-Chairman. Pastor Ian Miller (National Church

Health Director), Pastor Rob Nyhuis (National

Training Director), Pastor David Wright (National

Church Planting Director) and Pastor Mike

Cronin (Australian Missions Director) will fill the

remaining roles. As there are no other nominees

it is anticipated that these will be the elected

members. I highly commend each member to

you as ministers of great integrity and leadership

capacity. It is good to know that the senior

leadership of our movement is in good hands.

I would also like to thank Janet Brice (Executive

Secretary) and Nathan Bettcher (National

Administrator) for their service in the National

Office. Without their ongoing assistance, I could

not do all that I do in my role as National Chairman

and it’s been great to see how they have both

developed as spiritual leaders through their direct

involvement in the CRC. Nathan will finish up in his

role at the end of the year as he returns to full-time

post-graduate study and he will be sorely missed.

I believe the best is yet to come for the CRC

and as I visit the State Conferences each year

the sense of love and unity among us reveals

a really health scene. I can see the potential

for new leaders to rise up, for new churches

planted, new innovative ministry opportunities

in Australia and new missionary endeavours

to reach the Nations of our world, plus much

more. All this is possible when we keep our eyes

on Jesus and whole-heartedly serve him.

As always, it’s an honour to serve the best

interests of our great movement.

Yours Sincerely,

Pastor Bill Vasilakis National Chairman


NSW/ACT/QLDWhat a privilege it is to serve

our awesome churches in

NSW, ACT and QLD! I love what

God is doing in each of our

churches and the fellowship

that exists between them.

Building these relationships is so important

and continues to be a focus for our States.

In terms of State events, it was great to join with

the Victorian pastors at Albury last year and hear

from Joel Holm. We have also had some excellent

retreats which are becoming important events

in our State calendar. This includes the Pastor

and Spouses retreat on ministry and personal

health, plus our Emerging Leaders retreat where

over 60 attended with Pastor Tim Lochens as

our guest ministry. Our State Youth camps at

Condobolin also continue to be important events.

It’s been great to see Caroline Dennis emerging

as our State and National Kids Director. She is

making contact with many of our churches and

helping to resource and encourage leaders in this

area. I’d like to also thank Mel Beer who is moving

on after serving around seven years as secretary

and treasurer. Thanks for all your hard work Mel!

Thanks also to our State Executive members. It’s a

privilege to serve Jesus and our churches with you.

SA/NT/WAIt’s again been my privilege to

serve as State Chairman in SA/

NT/WA and to lead our State

Executive. I’m encouraged by

the sense of fellowship across

the State and to see Churches

ministering in their respective communities.

We enjoyed Joel Holms ministry in October

2011 at our State gathering. Ian Miller was also

outstanding in March this year when he spoke to

us about Healthy Pastors and Healthy Churches.

Other State gatherings this year have included our

Elders and Board members day, Administrators

day, plus various youth activities that have been

taking place. These are such important times

as we have ongoing fellowship together.

It’s been exciting to see what individual churches

and ministers are doing in their local scenes. It’s

been good to see some new church plants in the

last few years and I’m trusting this will continue,

especially in the Indigenous communities of Central

Australia. It’s been a joy to see some more churches

reaching milestone anniversaries and reflect on

the many years of good work in SA, NT and WA.

I want to take this opportunity to thank our State

Executive team who continue to provide leadership

and support. I’m looking forward to the next 12

months and all that God has in store for us.

TasmaniaTassie has continued to do well

throughout 2011-2012. There’s a

strong sense of fellowship and

connection across the Pastors

here and it’s always great to

meet together during the year.

Individual churches are doing some great things

for God which is exciting. Launceston has almost

finished their massive facilities extension,

and CFC Hobart has developed an effective

prison ministry program at Risdonvale through

various contacts. These things speak to our

community of Jesus’ love and saving grace.

As always, I want to thank all our Pastors and

Churches for the fantastic work they do and

special thanks to the State Executive members

who continue to support the work in Tassie.

VictoriaMinistry life is not without its

highs and lows, and we have

certainly experienced this in

Victoria over the past year.

We have had two outstanding

State Conferences. In October

2011 we combined with NSW Pastors at Albury

to hear from guest speaker Joel Holm on the

subject of Church-Centred Mission. Then in

March this year, Peter McHugh spoke to us about

discipleship and the new creation message.

There have been several good news stories of new

ministry initiatives and facility expansions across

the State. In particular, Cranbourne have expanded

their school facilities and celebrated a great

achievement as one of the top schools in the State

on the NAPLAN (National Literacy and Numeracy)

tests. Well done! They are now looking at the

possibility of starting other campuses in the future.

There is activity taking place in the various

areas of kids & youth ministry, training,

missions and church planting. For example, it’s

been a personal joy for me to be involved in

the planting of two international churches –

Vancouver, Canada and Greenwich, England.

It’s been a transitionary time in Victoria too as

you can see from the credential matters table.

I’d like to thank all our Pastors and Churches for

the ministry they provide week to week, and

particularly to our State Executive who continue

to serve the movement wholeheartedly for Jesus.

National MissionsIt’s been a privilege for me in the last twelve months

to step into the role of Australian Missions.

The International vision of ‘a presence in every

nation by 2045’ has major implications for our

mission’s involvement and I’m encouraged

by the many various missionary projects

that our churches are participating in.

According to a survey earlier this year CRC

churches are now involved in ministry in 50

nations. Not all of these would be at the level

of a physical presence in each nation (i.e.

an effective ongoing ministry in the nation)

although many of them are, and the remainder

are at least a positive step in that direction.

Our International Missions Strategy Team (IMST)

has been talking at length about the changing

scene of recognising new fields and new policies.

As a result, we have come up with several

policy initiatives which we believe will help

to shape our growing International efforts.

Pulse magazine is now being published quarterly

with Katelyn Fowler as the Editor. This is proving

to be an effective avenue for communicating

what is happening in our various fields around

the globe. Pulse is being distributed by email,

as well as being published on the website.

Hard copies are also available for purchase. For

more information, head to crcmissions.org

As the next step toward fulfilling our

vision, churches will be encouraged to

‘Adopt a Nation’. Information on this will

be presented at the Convention.

You can see the Missions Office financial reports

elsewhere in this update. I’d like to thank Judi

Shirley for the incredible hard work she does

in maintaining this area. I’d like to also thank

Pastor Mike Groom for his contribution as the

former Australian Missions Director. I know that

his heart and passion is for missions and I look

forward to seeing what God has in store for him.

Finally, if you want any more information on

our CRC Missions you can contact the Office at

Endeavour Hills or check out the website. Please

continue to pray for and support Missions in your

local church. It’s so important to reach our world

with the transforming message of the Gospel.

Pastor Mike Cronin

Australian Missions Director

uPdate 2011 - 20126

International ReportWithin the CRC, both corporately & at a local church level,

we are seeing a greater awareness & engagement in missions which is very encouraging to witness.

There are now many differing ministry

expressions into Nations which were previously

considered to be outside our sphere of

influence. The task of reaching our world for

Jesus is becoming more tangible and possible

in the thinking of our leaders and churches.

However, the face of our present world is changing

rapidly and operating in the nations demands

a new adaptability and readiness to change

in some of our modus operandi. Corporate

businesses that operate in this changing world

(and particularly in those nations which are

undergoing some measure of instability or turmoil)

are making the changes necessary for them to

successfully pursue their stated objectives.

As a fellowship of National CRC Organisations, we

must also respond to the ever changing needs of

our world if we are to reach it with the Gospel. We

should regularly consider the possibility of making

changes and adjusting to the way we do missions

in those nations that we are already engaged in to

advance what we are commanded in Christ to do.

To presume that the methods or approaches that

have proven to be successful in one nation will be

the same in another is a wrong assumption. The

factors of diversity and timing within a nation

(i.e. what is happening within a nation at any

given time) must be considered if we are to be

successful in reaching our mission objectives.

Also we must be more discerning and ‘alert’

to what opportunities there are for missions

in the nations. Often there are ‘hidden’ things,

(places, peoples, opportunities) in the nations

which are not obvious to a casual observation

or to the general public view. These hidden

things need to be discovered; they need to

be searched out. So that is why we must be

proactive in our searching out opportunities

and the continued questioning as to what God

would have us be engaged with in these things

However we should not take every opportunity that

is presented to us, otherwise we may find ourselves

engaged in something which is not directly God’s

will for us. Simply, we need to be more discerning in

these matters than we may have been in the past.

Great opportunities and a Great God must surely

result in great exploits for God. What an exciting

time to live and what exciting discoveries there

are to be made! The future of our movement

is as exciting as our faith will make it.

Strategic ReportsChurCh heaLthUpdate: Church Health continues to be a major

focus in the CRC. SA and NSW both held conferences

on this topic and several churches are tapping into

the many excellent diagnostic tools for assessing

church health. Pastor Ian Miller and the Church

Health team continue to meet and discuss the

needs of Churches and Pastors in this area, and they

are a wonderful resource group to help in this area.

The Next 12 Months: We’ll be reviewing the 2008-

2013 Strategic Directions and, in preparation for the

next 5-year Strategic Directions, will be asking for

Pastors to send their feedback. The main challenge

is for Churches to keep up-to-date and informed as

to the various help that is out there in this area.

ChurCh PLantingUpdate: The Church Planting Toolshed has

continued to be very successful over the past 12

months and there is a great heart and motivation

for church planting across the movement. Several

churches are starting outreach activities with

the hope of these becoming new congregations.

Pastor David Wright continues to champion this

area and mentor our new outreach Pastors.

The Next 12 Months: More Toolsheds are being

planned for this year and next year. The church

planting financial grant continues to be available

for new outreaches from the State and National

Offices. It’s important to keep praying, dreaming

and stepping out in faith as we aim to reach

our target of doubling our churches by 2020.

worLd MissionsUpdate: There has been so much taking place

in the area of world missions with the the

Colombo Project, our International Strategic

Directions 2010-2015, plus Walhalla Faith Training

Center. See Pastor Mike Cronin’s Missions

report for other things that are happening.

The Next 12 Months: The International Missions

Strategy Team (IMST), which consists of Pastors

Bill Vasilakis, Mike Cronin, Neil Milne, Barry

Silverback and Mike Groom, are looking at the

process of recognising new fields and credential

applicants, which will have significant impact on

achieving our stated goals and also give guidance

to achieving our aim of having a CRC presence

in every Nation by 2045. Mike Cronin and the

missions team working with him will keep you

posted with further PULSE magazine updates.

training & LeadershiP deveLoPMentUpdate: It’s been great to see an increase of

student enrolments this year in VIC and NSW,

with numbers remaining steady in SA. The

National Training team are working towards

streamlining the administration process under

one National office and updating some of our

video teaching to keep up with new content.

The Next 12 Months: The National Training

team under Pastor Rob Nyhuis’ leadership is

working towards building student registrations

for 2013 and providing some of the new video

material as it becomes available. Registration

forms for 2013 are available in the display area

at convention and if you want more information

you can contact the Training Office in your State.

generationsUpdate: Pastor Tim Lochens has been working

with the National Youth team in preparation

for RELOAD ARISE Youth Conference. This bi-

annual youth event now happens at the same

time as the International People’s Convention

which is really exciting. Many other local events,

camps and training days also have been taking

place across the States. It’s also been great to

welcome Pastor Caroline Dennis as the National

Kids Director and she is making contact with

churches and providing support and resources to

many CRC churches in the area of kids ministry.

The Next 12 Months: We are planning a new

training stream for kids and youth leaders at our

2013 REVIVAL Conference. This will include top-

notch speakers with experience to help lift the bar

right across all our churches in this area. We will

also be brainstorming new ideas in preparation

for the next Strategic Directions as well.

A Vision for the FutureAfter operating out of rented buildings for

many years in very difficult circumstances,

the CRC in Colombo, Sri Lanka will

soon have their own facilities.

As a CRC Movement we have been operating

in Sri Lanka for many years. This has included

Local Churches, training Pastors and Leaders

and operating Children’s homes.

For a number of years the CRC has been keen to

secure permanent facilities in the Capital, Colombo.

In May 2010 we were able to purchase land in an

ideal location at a very reasonable price. Plans are

now underway to build multi-purpose facilities

for the operation of the church, offices, residential

and training. The purchase of the land and stage

one of the project will cost about $500,000.

We are now raising the finance to enable us to

move ahead with this fantastic project. Please

how you can get involved to financially assist.
