St Martins, New Zealand

Members of the St Martins Seventh-day Adventist Church in South New Zealand have been conducting an outreach program for the last three years that has seen 15 people baptised so far.
On Saturday afternoons, the St Martins Adventist Church holds the Riverlaw@4 program. Different series are presented, including studies into the Bible books of Daniel and Revelation.
Both lay members, Mr Gosset and Mr Taaffe take turns presenting the series on two evenings a week.
“I don’t do it because I have to,” says Mr Gosset. “I do it because I love it. The Gospel is such great news, why should I not share it with everybody?”
Debbie Kavanagh, who decided to be baptised after attending the Riverlaw@4 program, is now actively involved in the outreach of the church and “The Most Amazing Discovery” series.
“I started attending church programs, but decided to stop after a while,” she says. “But I realised the world has got nothing to offer and that we need God.”
St Martins Adventist Church most recently baptised two people on February 2 as a result of the series. “There isn’t a higher privilege on earth than seeing people make the step to publicly declare Jesus as their Saviour, and to know that it’s the beginning of a new life,” says Mr Gosset.
