which is a service of the West End churches of Edinburgh
into the business community. OASIS offers a supportive
Christian presence to any and all in the offices in and

 Fusion
is a group of people who are working together to help
catalyse and resource a radical movement for Christ
amongst students and within their culture. They are
an organisation that works in partnership with local
churches, resourcing and enabling both the Church
and its students to see the Kingdom of God break out
in student culture.
Fusion primarily operates through cell groups. To
help this happen, they have developed some exciting
resources. Cell materials, leaders' materials and
a whole host of other things can be checked out on
their website. Fusion also has a number of experienced
and trained people (both Fusion workers and key volunteers
from their partnership churches) who are available
for training and advice.
Fusion's volunteer at Community Church is Joy
Lyth.
Fusion's
vision is to see a connected movement of students
emerge in many nations, who will be effective disciples
and missionaries in all of life, including the workplace.

The
River Fellowship is a Catholic lay community
dedicated to mission in Slovakia that has grown up
around the ancient Redemptorist Monastery in Podolinec,
Slovakia. Many members of Community Church have had
the privilege of travelling to Slovakia nd sharing
the lives of the members of the community, mutually
encourageing and teaching one another across denominational
and cultural boundaries. The site is currently in
Slovak only but will soon be translated into English.
Soon Community Church hopes to market retreats and
holidays to this beautiful area of Slovakia. For more
information, email
the office.

 The
Africa Fund is an initiative set up to support
people we know and visit regularly in Africa. There
is no organisational
link to the projects involved, which are entirely planned
and
run by people in Africa. However, we will only support
projects where we have a relational link with the individuals
involved,
and an ongoing accountability as to the use of resources.
The fund has been set up David Hewitt, a leader in an
Edinburgh church (Community Church Edinburgh). He
originally trained as an architect and worked in Tanzania
for a year in the late 1970s. He now makes regular visits
to Kenya and Uganda, to further the links that have
developed with a number of churches and organisations.
The fund operates under the auspices of Community Church
Edinburgh (CCE), which is currently seeking charitable
status, and the c.net network of churches in the UK.
The accounts are independently audited each financial
year.
The web site is intended to be a place of interest and
information, as well as a chance for you to learn about
live development projects that are 'on the ground' in
Africa. Why not choose to get behind one of the initiatives,
follow it's progress, and help make a difference today.
'You can't change the world, but you can change someone's
world.'
For more information, contact David Hewitt on info@theafricafund.net

Movement
in Worship
Several members of Community Church Edinburgh are linked
with Movement in Worship, an dance movement based in Southampton
in England around Andy Au, the inspirational Christian
dancer. In the next few months, we are looking forward
to the inception of Movement in Worship (Scotland) under
Maggie Hewitt and Rachel Whitby, with its own dedicated
website. Until then, check out the original site from
down south. |
