It was a really good Monday night. Thank you everyone for coming and being an active part of NASA. I was motivated and challenged by your thoughts and ideas. And I’m going to win the juggling competition hehe!
I was very impressed by the unity of the group in the way that each expressed their individual values and then how our collective values developed. It is a healthy exercise to learn from our experience and launch into the future from a solid launch pad.
Thanks for making the meeting on Monday such a wonderful experience. Remember to start thinking about objectives and goals for our next meeting in a couple of weeks time. In the meanwhile, I have posted a video that has inspired me… man he can juggle!
As many of you know by now, Tyson Norris passed away on Thursday night after a tragic accident. From NASA we would like to offer our prayers and deepest sympathies to the family, and friends of Tyson.
Tyson was a lively person that lived his life to the fullest, and he will leave a deep void in our hearts. However, he was also a follower of Christ, and as such we have the assurance that we will see him again when our Saviour comes back.
Wallsend SDA church will be holding a special service today where we will comfort and support each other. So, if you are one of the many people grieving, please come and share with us.

Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know about Big Day In at Wallsend Seventh-day Adventist Church, on June 27 and 28. Check the following clip for more info:
Youth Church is coming around again. Mark the 31st of May on your calendar, because you’ve absolutely got to be there. Wallsend always puts on a great worship service for anyone who turns up. I myself have missed out of late and will NOT be truanting next Sabbath. Turn up early for free breakfast, all are welcome!
Sydney Adventist Student Association had a very cool camp during ANZAC day long weekend down at Wombeyan Caves. Was amazing to experience God’s creation; from the falling autumn leaves to the freezing cold cave water!! There was the good old haystacks experience of Sabbath lunch, a talk on God’s team being the winning team, walks up hills and down cliffs, and Bible trivia to add to the mix Will be great to catch up with our Sydney family in future events, and at ASA Symposium!!!!
Hey everyone just updating you on how fab brekky on Beaumont was this Sunday Pancakes were a real hit, with the most amazing scrambled eggs happenning as well as mugs of hot chocolate to brave that autumn morning chill. Was sweet to catch up and brave the morning with new friends and old friends
I found the following while doing some research today. I haven’t watched all yet, but what I watched so far seems interesting. I thought I would post it here because the debate is done by students. Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
Student speakers included Matt Burdette, Jeremy Morrell, Shane Akerman, and Raymond Thompson. The event was organized by students with the support of the School of Social Work and Family Studies, History Department, and Campus Ministries.
