Dear Editor, The Cairns Post. A great friend of mine is a woman of about 50 years of age, and one who comes from another country and another society. She finds a great delight in her Christian beliefs, is a frequent reader of her bible, and yet can find no assembly of Christians in Cairns that will accept her. Her attempts have included spending each Sunday at the local Cairns Lutheran services for some months, requesting to be baptised, to no response, to no avail; and at the Cairns Catholic services for some months, doing the same thing, to no avail. Can you advise any Christian community in Cairns that is likely to welcome someone who simply loves Christ? Serious Question.

Dear Editor, The Cairns Post.

A great friend of mine is a woman of about 50 years of age, and one who comes from another country and another society.

She finds a great delight in her Christian beliefs, is a frequent reader of her bible, and yet can find no assembly of Christians in Cairns that will accept her.

Her attempts have included spending each Sunday at the local Cairns Lutheran services for some months, requesting to be baptised, to no response, to no avail; and at the Cairns Catholic services for some months, doing the same thing, to no avail.

Can you advise any Christian community in Cairns that is likely to welcome someone who simply loves Christ and wishes to be an active member of a great Christian community?

Serious Question. All true.

Although 'many are called but few are chosen', I doubt that it is a good thing that people are chosen on the basis of race, even here in remote far away Cairns.
