Ever wondered how your unique gifts could be a blessing to others in mission and ministry? In our new series we feature the many faces across our Church who are serving where they are, with what God has given them. We hope that it will be a blessing and an inspiration. 

Meet Cecilia Russell (Cec) and Emma Chapman

Current ministry

Faith@5 is a combined activity of Jesmond Park Uniting Church and new Lambton Uniting Church in the Hunter Presbytery. Faith@5 runs on Saturday from 5pm. 
 
What you love about being involved in this ministry?

We have developed a space where kids, teens, and their adults feel connected, are allowed to ask questions, and enjoy each other's company. 
  
What you find most challenging?

A few things: the time and energy Faith@5 takes - alongside day jobs, and looking after our teens.
 
What you are looking forward to in your ministry in the year ahead?

Finding ways to share leadership with a larger group, maybe including our teens.
 
Anything else you might want to share?

We are grateful for the Jesmond Park Uniting Church church council that supported the initial ideas around Faith@5 and have continued to be supportive.
