Beach to Bush Vision
Beach to
Bush ministers to the remote rural communities of South East
Queensland and to the tourists on the coast.
|
Beach to Bush travels
to a number of country towns in South East Queensland. We aspire to
bless the pastors and church leadership in these towns with
intercession and worship, children’s programs, preaching in churches
as well as practical things such as painting and mowing lawns.
Another aim we have is training and mobilising youth to be
competent and confident in sharing their faith with others. To
accomplish this we teach them practical skills, such as how to share
their faith, and work with the youth to discover how they can impact their school and the youth of their community.

The tropical paradise
of coastal Queensland attracts approximately one million
tourists every year from around the world. Beach to Bush
will travel to a number of coastal communities during the course
of the school to minister to these travellers. This is
often done through lifestyle and friendship evangelism.
The school will stay at backpackers and campsites. Many
people who are travelling are searching for more from life, both
in the natural and the spiritual, and are eager to talk and
discuss issues of life with students. |

Another tool that the
school uses to connect with people is sports evangelism. This
involves playing soccer, volleyball or any other international sport
and inviting other travellers to come and play with them. Sport is a
casual and non threatening medium to be able to develop relationship
with people. As a result of playing sport together, there will often
be opportunity to talk with them about God and issues of the heart.
Overall, Beach to Bush
aims to equip and encourage the church as well as see people come to
know Jesus as their Lord and saviour and to be a blessing…wherever we
are.
