Michael say he is “very much looking forward to the challenge of parish life, and the opportunity to commend the name of Jesus to anyone who has ears to hear”.

There will be time for more formal farewells closer to Michael’s departure but in the meantime we give thanks to God for the ministry Michael and his family have exercised in the Moore College community and pray for Michael, Catherine and the children as they prepare for the transition to St Mark’s where they will continue to serve our Lord Jesus.

We start Open Week with an Open Night: an info night for people to come along and see the College, see a presentation overviewing the college and its courses in Broughton Knox Lecture Theatre, followed by a mini lecture and Q & A session with students and faculty with supper to follow.

These events are informal and provide everyone with a relaxed chance to find out what Moore is all about and what Moore offers.

Open Night
Monday 27 May
7.45 – 9.15 pm
Broughton Knox Centre, 15 King Street Newtown.
During the evening there will be a short bible talk, a sample mini lecture, an outline of the courses on offer and life at College, and a Q & A panel with faculty and students. For more information email openevents@moore.edu.au

Open Week
Monday 27 May – Friday 31 May
You can drop in for a day or part of any day during this week and attend regular classes, meet students and faculty, plus share in a meal (on us!).
RSVP: openevents@moore.edu.au

This graduation was special as it had the outgoing Archbishop Peter Jensen presiding over his last graduation as the President of the college’s governing board. Additionally it had Moore College’s outgoing and incoming pricinpal’s Dr John Woodhouse (currently on long service leave) and Dr Mark Thompson sitting together as ‘lay people’ in the audience watching the proceedings. It also had Moore’s recent doctoral student Dr Alfred Olwa there as guest speaker who gave a stirring graduation address based on the book of Jude about contending and being willing to die for the Christian faith. He warned the graduates to be prayerful, vigilant and to keep building themselves up in their faith to protect the gospel.

Dr Olwa said “In your daily experience of ministry in Australia today, you do well to remember that there is a faith once for all delivered to the saints; this faith is worth contending for — it is worth guarding — it is worth defending; and where necessary it is worth dying for; but also this faith is frequently threatened from within the church; and for that matter every authentic believer must contend for the faith. In a nutshell this is my message to you.”

“The best thing we can do to become a church that is effective in contending for the faith is to become a church well built on the faith. ‘Build yourselves up on your most holy faith’. Prayer is an indispensable part of contending for the faith. ‘Pray in the Holy Spirit’. Unless we seek the mind of the Holy Spirit in prayer, we will not grow in our grasp of the faith and we will be weak contenders. I hope that your time at College has enabled you to be prayer warriors. The College cannot do the actual praying for you: you either pray in this business of contending for the faith or come back to college at a later stage for a refresher course on prayer.

“When you have Rectors whose prayer life is weak: you can fear for the prayer life of their churches under their watch. We have seen it in Africa! Where the prayer life of the Rectors are strong, it follows that the prayer life of the churches are also strong. When it comes to the actual contending Jude says: ‘And convince some, who doubt; save some, by snatching them out of the fire; on some have mercy with fear, hating even the garment spotted by the flesh’.”

“At least two things are evident here. One is that contending sometimes involves an intellectual effort to change the way a person thinks: ‘Convince some, who doubt.’ The other is that contending sometimes involves moral reclamation: go after them into the mess where their perverse ideas have taken them, and snatch them back to safety even while you hate what they are doing. These two things I am confident that Moore College has ably equipped you to do it.”

“In reality these things always go together: an effort to change the mind; and, an effort to change the morals, bathed in prayer to God. Contending for the faith is never merely an academic exercise. It is never merely mental. In December last year, a dear servant of the Lord, Bishop Peter Tasker, addressed our faculty in Uganda. He boldly warned us as theological educators in Africa today, that our business as theological educators is never primarily an academic exercise detached from the life of the church; ours, he reasoned with us is a fellowship. We need to hear this because the source of all false doctrine is the pride of the man’s heart not the weakness of his mind” Dr Olwa said.
