The Decision: Rev. Wayne Alexander

  • Sep 9, 2010

Dear Friends

Last night I received a very strong call from the members meeting of Tonbridge Baptist Church (TBC) to become their Senior Minister when Derek Hills retires. After having some time to reflect on this news and draw near to God, Jem and I have just informed TBC that we will accept their call.

Although this is a day when Jem and I are so grateful to God for His very clear leading throughout this whole year, our excitement is mixed with genuine sadness about leaving this church family that we love at PBC. I've been reflecting a great deal on the journey PBC has had these last eight years, and how God has spoken so decisively to us all in key moments regarding the development of our Community Projects, the growth of our Youth Ministry and our Small Groups, the launch of a new era for Children's Ministry in Promiseland, the growth of our Young Adults work - and so many other ministries. I look forward to seeing how God continues to use and grow these ministries and what He will do at PBC in the next season. Your investments of prayer, time, energy and finances in these and other ministries will lead to a harvest, and God will bring the right leaders here in His timing.

I have yet to speak with the Elders regarding my notice period but we will inform you as soon as we have clarity.   

With my love

Wayne

The Theme of My Praise - Easter Prayer from 2nd-5th April

Take an hour or two out to meditate on Jesus, His emotions leading up to the cross and praise Him for who He is between 8am and 6pm from Monday 2nd - Thursday 5th April at PBC. There will be readings and prompts for your thoughts and prayers, leading to the cross itself and Psalm 22. Jesus is the theme of our praise. Come and worship Him.

Easter Sunday - Baptisms and The Miracle Maker

2nd April, 2012

Easter week at PBC has some thought provoking and interesting opportunities for worship and glorifying our living God. There's Good Friday service at 10am, followed by the Walk of Witness at 11am to the Village Green for the HOPE Pembury Churches Together annual service on the green. Hot cross buns and refreshments will be served at the Hanes' home after the service finishes. And on Easter Sunday, there's three baptisms taking place in the morning at 10am followed by a family opportunity at 5pm to enjoy a cinematic experience with popcorn, icecream and fizzy pop whilst watching The Miracle Maker.
