ChurchTogether 2006 was an absolute blast on Sunday night, with well over 18,000 people from over 175 churches attending. It is just wonderful to know that so many Christians can put their denominational differences aside to come together and celebrate as one Church.
Bumped into Ganesh and his friends from Perth Christian Life Centre. I met Ganesh while I was studying at the University of Western Australia. He works as pharmacist in the Guild Village.

Deborah is an electrical engineer while Esther is a speech therapist. Angelina, Siew Yi & Lars down below.
I know you told me you're camera shy... But somehow or rather I didn't really care =)
The night started off literally with a bang!
What event would be complete without the ever-popular T-Shirt throwing contest?
Canon J. John from the UK was absolutely inspirational in his message. With the stature and accent of Mr Bean, he is not to be taken lightly as over 100 people accepted the Lord Jesus into their lives that night.
Lastly, the night ended off with an even bigger bang! Hillsongs United performed the closing concert, with thousands of us all singing our lungs out and jumping along to the music!
Till next year... 18,000 people, 175 churches, 1 faith... 1 Church Together. ^_^

AWESOME!!!!!!!!
Oh WOW you had Hillsong UNITED with you!?!?!? I lurve them!!! They are such an annointed group its wonderful that you were a part of this great event.
I heared about them last year and since then their music has been a life-saver to me. I am completely connected to their songs. Their passion, energy and love for Jesus is just awesome! I would listen to them and be transported to a different place, just me and God and be totaly embraced in His glory.
Do not look at the dark clouds or pay any attention to the thunder in the distance, for they are not looming over you. Know that our loving Saviour has conqured everything and His light is much brighter and stronger. Surround yourself with songs of truth and all illusions of darkness simply will fade away.
I believe we will come together as a family to sing and dance and jump and cry to our awesome saviour. We will indeed bring the house down!
