Last week, Churches of Christ held its annual two-day conference, Summit 2026. Church leaders, elders and ministers from across the state joined Churches of Christ executives, managers and staff for a gathering designed to encourage spiritual renewal and equip attendees with tools and insights to strengthen their ministry.

Sessions across the two days explored topics including worship beyond music, engaging with international missions, church planting and the authentic use of AI, encouraging collaboration, vision-setting and preparation for the year ahead.

One highlight was the inspirational calligraphy activity, where attendees were asked to reflect on the one thing they would love to see grow or flourish in their ministry. Their responses were then transformed into beautiful pieces of calligraphy and gifted back to them as a lasting reminder of their vision and calling.

The event is intentionally held alongside our Annual General Meeting, creating a unified experience of governance, growth and community. Together, these events foster a shared sense of purpose, connection and momentum across our church network.

Conference has been part of Churches of Christ for more than 140 years. First held in Toowoomba in 1883, it has grown from a small gathering into major state, national, and international events.

This week, Churches of Christ in Queensland will once again come together for its annual State Conference, known as Summit, at Kenmore. Over two days, ministry leaders and church members from across the state will gather to listen, learn, worship, and share their stories.

Held in conjunction with the Annual General Meeting, Summit will be a time of connection, reflection, and shared vision, bringing churches together to celebrate progress, discuss priorities, and help shape the future direction of the movement.

What would it mean to be loved before getting anything right?

Romans 5:8 answers that plainly. God didn’t wait for people to have their lives sorted before he showed his love. 📖

Christ died for us while we were still sinners. His love was never a reward for good behaviour. It came first, and it still does.

On the good days and the hard ones, that love stays the same. 🙏

During this week, Churches of Christ will join organisations across Australia in recognising Spiritual Care Week, and this year's theme, Healing through Presence and Compassion.

The theme draws inspiration from the Japanese art of Kintsugi, where broken pottery is carefully repaired with gold, recognising that what has been broken is restored and has its own unique beauty and value.

Across our services, Chaplains, and those who pastorally care for others within their roles, offer something that can seem simple, but is profoundly important: their presence.

This Spiritual Care Week, we thank those who faithfully serve through spiritual care ministry whatever their role.

Recently, tenants from Slacks Creek community housing headed to Southport Church of Christ for a special outing.

Josh, a volunteer, regularly travels to Slacks Creek to support Chaplain Adam Penman with community activities for tenants, including a monthly BBQ. When the tenants heard Josh was starring in a theatre performance, they decided to make the trip to attend and support "young Josh". Together with Chaplain Adam, they cheered from the audience.

Josh said he felt honoured the tenants would travel so far to support him. Beyond the performance itself, the day highlighted the strong sense of community that is developing within the Slacks Creek community, with tenants, volunteers and staff sharing life together and supporting one another.

Josh is currently studying with the ACOM - the Australian College of Ministries and is in his second year as an intern through Churches of Christ's Navigate Internship Program.
