"Keep your eyes on Jesus, keep your eyes on the Father, and be open to each other.
Let the Holy Spirit minister to us because he testifies to Jesus, and Jesus testifies to the Father,
and we will come to know the Father better and become children of God."
Our MC, Rev. Errol Stevenson
"TS is not my vision, it is God's vision for the city of Sydney"
Lilian Schmid - Convenor of Transforming Sydney, Coordinator of Prayer Strategy for the Spheres of Influence
"TS is a ministry of encouragement to people all over Sydney and NSW who have a heart for Kingdom transformation;
in the family, in the church, and in the marketplace."
Rev. Peter Robinson - Chair of TS Board
"I was involved with the first Pentecost Eve in Newtown.
The number of people we had there from all denominations - it was amazing.
Nothing happens without prayer, and to see that prayer going on set a fire under me,
and I'm 82! You're never to old to serve the Lord: all you need to do is get in step with Him."
Ron Edwards, SESPN & TS Board Member
"Lord, let us be a people of a different spirit, like Calebs in our time.
Conquering the mountains of impatience, offence, anger and sin that so easily ensnares us. Seeing them dissolve under the outpouring of Your grace"
Sue Peacock - Aglow, local prayer leader
"It only take a stone to bring down the giant - will you put a stone in your pocket to bring down the giant? Lord with Your help we can do it."
Maureen O'Brien - Aglow, local prayer leader
"Pentecost brings radical changes - if it doesn't bring radical change it's not Pentecost.
A problem the Church faces is we tend to reduce the Holy Spirit to just peace.
We need peace, but peace doesn't bring radical change and the Holy Spirit brought radical change.
The 120 men and women had no idea they would be leaving that place unafraid to take the message of Jesus Christ to the city -
that's the radical change Pentecost is supposed to bring."
Our host, the Rev. Dr. Denis Plant; Principal of Vision Bible College and the Internet Bible College
"What is happening here? This is a miracle! The Holy Spirit is enjoying this.
The Godhead is celebrating (so to speak) because they're having fellowship, communing with us.
This is what God was feeling when he walked in the Garden with man His creation."
Australian elder Des Higgs - Member of TS Board
Prayer is the soul's sincere desire,
uttered or unexpressed;
the motion of a hidden fire
that trembles in the breast.
(from a hymn by James Montgomery 1818)
