‘The life that makes a difference’
CMS Canberra Mission Focus is an annual event organised by CMS to encourage local supporters to engage wholeheartedly in God’s mission. It is a unique opportunity to be encouraged from God’s word, to hear from missionaries, and to praise God together as his people. Come and be challenged and refreshed as we focus the joy of mission and the difference Christ makes to our lives, and consider the part we can play in seeing a world that knows Jesus.
Bible speaker
Our speaker for Canberra Mission Focus 2025 is Simon Gillham.
Simon will be giving three Bible talks on Philippians 1 and 2.

Simon teaches Mission and Ministry subjects at college and serves as the current Vice Principal. Margie works for CMS NSW & ACT providing pastoral support to missionaries. Together they enjoy time with family and friends, sailing and riding their motorbike.
