produced by Stuart Loudon, who recently spoke at a CLS breakfast,
is
here. By his own admission, Stuart is a
provider
of workshops, seminars, church consultation and Christian Life
Coaching to people wanting to improve their lives, and to churches
and Christian organisations wanting to increase their effectiveness.
Stuart is a resident of Australia's beautiful Gold Coast, and an
active member of Reedy Creek Baptist Church.
A quote : " My Christian Life Coaching work is designed to enable
Christians to more fully utilise their God-given gifts and talents,
living a more effective and fulfilling Christ-honouring life."

"The
Australasian Christian Legal Convention in Melbourne Feb 1-4 2001 was a
very special time of fellowship and encouragement. Lawyers from the
United Kingdom, Papua New Guinea and almost all states of
Australia gathered at Ormond College, Melbourne University on a hot
Thursday evening to be welcomed by Justice Keith Mason, President of
the NSW Court of Appeal.
Sir Gerard Brennan
officially opened the convention on Friday morning with an
address which we hope to publish on this website.
Papers were also given by
The Honourable Justice Paul de Jersey AC, Chief Justice of
Queensland (available on this website), Dr Robert Banks and
others. On Friday evening Rev. Tim Costello was the after dinner
speaker.
If you wish to be notified of the next Australasian Christian Legal
Convention email us today."

I'm writing on behalf of
the Brisbane City Women committee of Christian Womens Communicating
Intl to send their best wishes on the launch of the Christian
Lawyers Society for Queensland. We pray that this event will be a
great start and prove to be a source of real encouragement to
christian people in your field as well as a great tool for sharing
the great and glorious gospel. We are excited to hear of this new
venture and thank you for the offer to advertise our future seminars
on your website. Thank you too, for your support of our breakfasts
and we do look forward to the mutual encouragement we can be to each
other. A verse for you and your new society, from Amos 5 v 24

Righteousness like a never failing stream"

Hansford, Pam Weymouth and Betty Cane.
