50 years ago, the men's fellowship groups from a variety of churches in Marion and Brighton got together for the first "Walk Together, Talk Together". This annual, ecumenical, men's night celebrated its half centenary last night at Holdfast Baptist Church, Somerton Campus.
Around 20 men from our church joined the celebrations. There were a few highlights, one of which was the guest speaker Rev Tim Costello, current CEO of World Vision Australia. Having approximately 280 men singing "Bread of Heaven" together was also something to be heard to be believed. And as is often the case with these events - there was a great meal.
The night highlighted our unity as Christians. It showed the importance of men being able to meet together (as was also discussed by the guest speaker). It demonstrated the capacity of the church to put together great events. It also highlighted how good our church is at serving - the ladies in the kitchen and hall were from Holdfast Baptist Church and Marion Salvos with their families!
