  CHRISTMAS 2003

Christmas is here again but Christ was here all along. Thank you for coming to carols this year. We believe that you’re being here and reading this is not by accident. We believe every thing is by design and every person has a destiny. The thing is to know it, find it and achieve it. We believe you can. Because you are a seeker after truth you will arrive at your destiny. Dreams mean something and can be interpreted. Your future can be known and found here, because The child born on Christmas morn has the key that unlocks it for you. The Christmas story is not only about the birth of a child but also the story of a young woman who after a vision was then confronted with a choice - as did Joseph after he had a dream. What was the right thing to do? She believed the vision and moved from fear to doubt and then to certainty. She knew her destiny and the right choice to make. Her life did not become better, but more complex - misunderstood by parents, family, neighbours and the community around her. What dreams lie before you? What visions do you have for the future? What is your destiny and how do you find it? Will your marriage work out, your employment and what about your children? God doe not promise a problem free life but a full, rich and rewarding one, by being with you and by helping you fulfil your destiny. The account of the Christmas story is about dreams validated, visions affirmed and destinies fulfilled. Its about a dream for a better world where impossible things happen - loving your enemies, doing good to those who don’t deserve it, turning the other cheek and giving up one’s life for a friend. This was the message of The child born at Christmas and He personified it by loving us and dying for our sins on The cross and bringing this dream alive for those who believe.

It’s a gift for you and for me. Happy Christmas !

  WHAT IS CHRISTMAS WEST?


Christmas West exists for the recovering of the celebration of Christmas for Jesus Christ. For several years events have been planned and coordinated across Melbourne's West as many churches have come together to celebrate the birth of Jesus.

Christmas West is now a part of Awakening West which developed to capture the vision of churches in the West reaching out all the year round to our communities with the love of Christ.

In 2001, over 30 events and at least 50 churches from across Melbourne's western suburbs participated in Christmas West. Not only were some 25,000 members of our communities blessed with these fantastic events but also the churches who organised them, with many new relationships built, and some old ones restored too.

In 2002, we worked with 3 carols events and focused on local community impact in Hobsons Bay. Christmas Services were also advertised.
