  • The Scriptures Today Invite Us to Open Our Minds and Hearts to the Lavish Love of Our God
    The Scriptures today invite us to open our minds and hearts to the lavish love of our God. When the Israelites asked for food in the desert, God gave them exactly what they needed. Their grumbling didn’t put him off; he fed them with manna and quail. God only asked them to trust in his loving care for them. When crowds of people gathered around Jesus, he not only fed them; he gave them more than they could eat. God’s only desire in both instances was to show his lavish love in such a way that it would move people to trust him with their lives. When the people asked Jesus what they were to do to accomplish the works of God, he gave them a simple answer: believe in the one sent by God – believe in me. Then Jesus identifies himself: I am the bread of life, come down from heaven to give life to the world. All who come to him will never hunger or thirst. All of us believe that Jesus is the bread of life for us. We desire to place our trust and confidence in God’s loving care for us. We have also found that there is a challenge involved in this trusting. The challenge comes in our willingness to embrace God as he is, and not as we might like him to be. Confidence in God’s loving Providence means accepting with our whole being that God will provide for us, but not always as we might want or expect. Hoarfrost on the ground in the early morning was not what the Israelites expected, but it was bread from heaven as God had promised.

  • 12 November 2020 – New Lambton Public School
    PARLIAMENT OF NEW SOUTH WALES LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY FIRST SESSION OF THE FIFTY-SEVENTH PARLIAMENT Motion ___________ 12 November 2020 NEW LAMBTON PUBLIC SCHOOL Ms SONIA HORNERY (Wallsend) (12:05:46): That this House: (1) Notes a recent change to the intake boundary of New Lambton Public School will see six streets very close to the school and four students excluded from attending the school. (2) Notes 68 families attending the school live outside the catchment area. (3) Calls on the Minister for Education and Early Childhood Learning to change the boundaries to include these six streets. There is no denying that New Lambton Public School is above capacity. Last year I met with Federation of Parents and Citizens Associations of NSW representatives and wrote to the Minister for Education and Early Childhood Learning requesting action to reduce enrolment numbers. As a result of that action, the department changed enrolment boundaries. But in June this year the education department changed the boundaries without any proper community consultation. An online survey asked for feedback. The problem was that the Sydney‑centric generated consultation was only shared with the current school community. No attempt was made to make parents who live in the streets that were proposed to change aware of the survey. Does that make sense? No. My office was informed of the survey just 24 hours before it was due to close. The survey was extended after our intervention. Thankfully, my office and a group of dedicated parents made contact with as many residents as possible, giving them an opportunity to have their say.

  • 2019 Nsw State Budget Estimates – Relevant Committee Members
    2019 NSW STATE BUDGET ESTIMATES – RELEVANT COMMITTEE MEMBERS There are seven “portfolio” committees who run the budget estimate questioning process. These committees correspond to various specific Ministries and portfolio areas, so there may be a range of Ministers, Secretaries, Deputy Secretaries and senior public servants from several Departments and Authorities who will appear before each committee. The different parties divide up responsibility for portfolio areas in different ways, so some minor party MPs sit on several committees, and the major parties may have MPs with titles that don’t correspond exactly. We have omitted the names of the Liberal and National members of these committees, as the Alliance is seeking to work with the Opposition and cross bench (non-government) MPs for Budget Estimates. Government MPs are less likely to ask questions that have embarrassing answers. Victor Dominello [Lib, Ryde], Minister for Customer Services (!) is the minister responsible for Liquor and Gaming. Kevin Anderson [Nat, Tamworth], Minister for Better Regulation, which is located in the super- ministry group of Customer Services, is responsible for Racing. Sophie Cotsis [ALP, Canterbury] is the Shadow for Better Public Services, including Gambling, Julia Finn [ALP, Granville] is the Shadow for Consumer Protection including Racing (!). Portfolio Committee no. 6 is the relevant committee. Additional information is listed beside each MP. Bear in mind, depending on the sitting timetable (committees will be working in parallel), some MPs will substitute in for each other – an MP who is not on the standing committee but who may have a great deal of knowledge might take over questioning for a session.
