The difference Jesus makes... Rev John Lavender
Recently I asked the people at Glenmore Park Anglican Church to say something of the difference Jesus makes to their life. Here is a sample of what they said. “Because of Jesus I live my life with hope” (Michelle); “Jesus took everything I thought I knew about the world & turned it upside down. He put my life and the world I live in, in its proper perspective” (Duane); “No matter what this world throws at us, Jesus will always be our anchor and hold us in the place we are meant to be. With Jesus I always know where I am” (Phil); “I asked and accepted Jesus into my life as a teenager. Through my adult life, his love and grace has been the constant. Life without Jesus is not complete” (Paul); “I would not have made it through life’s struggles without him” (Wendy); “Before knowing Jesus, I knew I wasn’t good enough for God. No matter how hard I tried I couldn’t be good enough and that was scary. Discovering Jesus and what he has done (dying on the cross for my sinfulness and rising to life again), means I now understand that his death has brought me back to God and I am accepted just as I am. I have confidence, security and peace” (Jane); “Jesus has given me complete freedom from worry, stress and anxiety about the unknown, future, myself and what others think. I feel so much stronger, happy and liberated. I keep growing as my knowledge of Jesus grows – which is so surprising but so exciting!” (Ruth); “Jesus gives real hope and a true purpose for my life” (Fiona); “Knowing Jesus, and having him as the true authority in my life, helps me keep perspective and provides certainty. I don’t have to worry about anything because God has a bigger picture and knows what is best for me” (Jenny); “Jesus is a wonderful teacher, faithful friend and a good listener. He promises forgiveness for all who turn to him. He is a friend for life” (Elaine); “I have peace in my life knowing Jesus because he is control of now, tomorrow and eternity” (Alice); “I have sure hope and security in knowing Jesus because he has proven himself as my Saviour” (Ian); “He loves me so much and is always there for me” (Rachel); “Jesus constantly provides me with a sense of calm to help
me with the stress of each day. He gives my life meaning, a sense of belonging and an understanding of my place in the universe. My life has purpose. He is my anchor in an often chaotic existence” (Rhonda); “Life makes sense knowing Jesus” (Greg). We would love you to also know this difference that Jesus makes. Join us on Sunday.

Regentville Fire and Rescue Station A range of activities will be available including displays of firefighting equipment, kitchen hot oil fire simulation, kids activities as well as free show bags containing fire safety information.
If you miss this Open Day the station is always open to the public. Fire Officer Chris Fuller says “You are welcome to have a look around, jump on a truck and check out all the gear.” The education programme is an important part of the service. The Preed gives demonstrations to local preschools and Fire-ed is for the primary school students. There is also a great website for children at www.brigadekids.com The Rescue truck at Regentville has 2 fully qualified rescue operators at all times but it has been quiet in Glenmore Park recently with just a
grass fire quickly extinguished. On 1 January 2011 the NSW Fire Brigades changed its name to Fire and Rescue NSW (FRNSW). The new name more accurately reflects the wider scope of services offered to the community and proudly symbolises and supports the organisation’s vision for the future. While the name and look have changed Fire and Rescue NSW continues to be part of the state’s network of vital emergency services which work together 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to keep the community safe. Please be aware that in an emergency, the public should continue to access Fire and Rescue NSW by calling the Triple Zero (000) emergency number.

TIME FOR A TUNE UP? after the indulgences of Easter and the onset of Winter Perhaps you’ve over-indulged in the Easter break and now you feel sluggish and drained. You may be carrying a bit too much weight, and know that your metabolism needs some tweaking. Are you suffering from indigestion, bloating, or similar symptoms? You may think is it normal to feel this way after a holiday; especially one that puts so much emphasis on celebration, with food, drink and especially chocolate. Winter is hurriedly approaching too. Maybe you’ve already experienced your first winter cold. You could right now be trying to fight one off – and maybe you are experiencing a sore throat, runny nose and a sinus headache to boot. You probably think it’s inevitable to catch a couple of colds or to suffer the flu over Winter. You’re probably saying to yourself right now – doesn’t everyone?

Kev’s Korner
I was at Glenmore Park McDonalds having a coffee with Mum, my sister and her husband Joe and son Martin when almost as a by-the-way Trish told me that someone had emailed her that Paul Brazier had passed away. I couldn't believe it. I had onlybeen speaking to him 'the other day'. He is probably not much past 50 and sounded healthy enough so it was impossible for me to comprehend how he could be dead. I tried to access the free Wi-Fi to check if the news had made it to the Births, Deaths & Marriages website but after waiting for the impossibly slow Login, I decided to just ring his number. The phone rang (a good sign I thought) and eventually a young woman's chirpy voice answered. Suddenly I didn't know what to say. "Is your father still alive?" Of course I didn't say that! "Can I speak to Paul Brazier please?" I timidly asked. "Who is speaking?" the woman asked, still sounding normal. "It's Kevin Lee" I informed the unknown voice. "Is this Fr Kevin?" I confirmed my identity. "This is Isabella, Fr Kevin. Paul's daughter. I
don't know whether anyone has told you.. but Dad passed away during the night.."her voice trailed away as the sadness suddenly came over her. I was stunned. It was true. Up to this point I was hoping that the informant had got it wrong. Over my nearly 19 years of ministry I have been informed of so many people's death and it never ceases to shock me every time. Although we know that everyone must die, we are never prepared for it when it happens. Death is a sudden and unexpected visitor who never announces his arrival. I only just opened a Christmas card (I have been away for 3 months on Long Service Leave) from a lady in Singapore who had stayed in our parish for a while. It is still staring at me as I type this. She is dead. There are so many regrets that pass through my mind as I look at that card. Things I was going to do, words I was going to say, thoughts I wished I had expressed. The death of Jesus caused devastation for His disciples and friends. Even though He predicted His own demise, no one expected it when it happened. Similarly when He prophesied His return to life, even His nearest and dearest never anticipated it. The Resurrection of Jesus that we celebrated at Easter is a reminder to us of what will happen to all of us. It prompts us
to realise that our lives should always be lived in the light of this reality. Every one of us was born into this world to live. But Jesus was born in order to die. His death and His rising is meant to show us that our lives too have some meaning and purpose and that we are obligated to do something positive in this world so that when we do die, everyone will be shocked, dismayed, disappointed even. Incidentally Paul Brazier did do a lot of positive in this world. Apart from his job as a barrister, representing the rights and interests of thousands who needed his forceful intervention, he and his wife Virginia gave life to nine children. He will be sorely missed. May he rest in peace. Kevin Lee, Padre Pio Parish www.padrepio.org.au

Penrith City Deputy Mayor Jim Aitken OAM said the checks were vital, given that in the majority of cases seats were found to be incorrectly fitted. “To identify faults that need correcting, Council has an RTA fitter inspect your vehicle’s child restraint. “Faults that emerge from the checks include incorrect installation of the restraints, adjustable parts that have worked loose over time and need to be corrected, twisted or damaged straps and restraints that are mismatched with a child’s size and age. To take part, residents can book by calling 4732 7735. Places are limited.

Western Sydney to lead Electronic Blue Book roll out. Western Sydney will lead Australia’s e-health revolution with an ‘electronic blue book’ on the way for mums and bubs as just one of a number of new e-health projects dedicated to the region. In the next major step in national health reform, Western Sydney has been selected to be one of 12 e-health lead implementation sites that will see residents of Western Sydney be amongst the first Australians to register for e-health records. Minister for Health and Ageing Nicola Roxon and local Western Sydney MPs today visited the Mt Druitt Medical Centre, which will be one of many health services in Western Sydney to lead the early roll-out of ehealth records. “E-health is one of the critical elements of the Gillard Government’s efforts to modernise our health system through national health reform,” Minister Roxon said. “In the 21st century, Australians shouldn’t have to worry about remem-
bering every immunisation, every medical test, every prescription. “Instead, Australians should be able to use an e-health record that will keep all of their critical health information in one spot, helping to provide better health care. Local federal members said that this new e-health project is a win for Western Sydney and builds on the prior excellent e-health work completed in the region. “With one tenth of Australia’s population in Western Sydney, this is a major boost for the area, particularly for those who suffer from chronic diseases and often need to see a number of health care providers,” Member for Chifley, Ed Husic MP said. “This means that local diabetes, heart disease or asthma sufferers can sign up for an e-health record with their GP and be able to access that same record when they visit other health professionals. “It is a win-win situation for both local patients and health professionals through the delivery of more efficient and effective care,” Mr Husic said. “The ‘blue book’ is well known in New South Wales as being a valuable resource for keeping track of your
child’s health as they grow up,” Member for Greenway, Michelle Rowland MP said. “But if that record is lost, or if your child has to be rushed to hospital and you don’t have the record handy, parents have to rely on their memory. This will all change with the electronic blue book,” Ms Rowland said. “The Western Sydney e-health project will also focus on providing ehealth records for Indigenous Australians, older Australians and people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds,” David Bradbury MP, Member for Lindsay said. “E-health records are expected to help to provide faster diagnosis, cut down on medication errors and give patients peace of mind as doctors will be able to see the patient’s medication history,” Mr Bradbury said. The Gillard Government is investing up to $70 million in 12 lead implementation sites nationwide as a part of its overall investment of $467 million so that patients will be able to sign up for a personally controlled electronic health records from 1 July 2012. Details of the lead implementation sites can be downloaded from www. yourhealth.gov.au.

One more step toward a truly great walk A new section of pathway will extend the Great River Walk and provide more opportunities for more people to enjoy the beauty of the Nepean River. The work on River Road, Emu Plains is now underway. It marks the start of a proposed loop along the west and east banks of the river from Victoria Bridge to the M4. The loop will complement the already existing section of the Great River Walk which stretches from the Log Cabin north to
Cassola Place. This first stage of the loop will be built between Regatta Park and Francis Street. It will be shared by pedestrians and cyclists and will include a simple handrail on the river side. Penrith City Deputy Mayor Councillor Jim Aitken OAM said the new work was an important step toward realising the visionary Great River Walk which, with the cooperation of several councils, will eventually stretch 570 kilometres from Lake Bathurst near Goulburn to Broken Bay. “The Walk is part of our celebration
of Penrith as a ‘River City’ and is an ideal way for people to enjoy this wonderful natural asset,” Councillor Aitken said. “This section of river bank, although unpaved, is already very popular with walkers and cyclists,” Councillor Aitken said. “This work will make the walk safer and encourage more people, residents and tourists alike, to enjoy the stunning views the Nepean River has to offer.” The work is jointly funded by Council and the NSW Government under the Metropolitan Greenspace Program.
