ABOUT
Capernwray Torchbearers Queensland is a subsidiary of
Capernwray Torchbearers Australia Ltd & part of the
international Capernwray Missionary Fellowship of
Torchbearers.
Capernwray Torchbearers is not a church. It's a
mainstream Christian ministry supporting local churches by
teaching & training people predominantly through conferences
& Bible schools, both in Australia & overseas. In fact
Capernwray Torchbearers has training centres all over the
world. Capernwray Torchbearers is supported by all
mainstream denominations, though it is not affiliated with
any one in particular.
The ministry was started following WW2 by Major Ian Thomas
in England and spread across the globe as he ministered
abroad as an evangelist. As a result, Capernwray
Torchbearers has always been outwardly focused.
The verse at the very heart of the ministry continues to be
Colossians 1:27 "Christ in you, the hope of glory" (NIV).
Much of what is taught at our conferences & Bible schools
revolves around this major tenant of faith - that Jesus not
only died for our sins in our place but rose again to live
His resurrected life in us & through us through the Holy
Spirit each & every day - the ongoing process of restoring
of the glory of God in mankind. It is surprising how may
people do not understand the practical implications &
application of this.
Our speakers often work at one of our international centres,
or have done so over the years. They are committed
Christians with many years experience in Bible teaching.
Many travel the globe yearly speaking to hundreds &
thousands of people. We are thankful for those who make
themselves available to speak at our conferences & Bible
school here in Australia.
Capernwray Torchbearers Queensland (Capernwray Qld)
is part of the regional ministry of Capernwray Torchbearers
Australia. Since 1988 Capernwray Qld has held regular
Bible-based, Christ-centred conferences throughout
Queensland and northern New South Wales. Our vision is to
see others come to know Christ in a personal relationship
and be transformed and excited with the reality of His
indwelling Life. We believe that Christ in us (Gal 2:19-20,
Col 1:27) is the Christian life made available to every
Christian and that Christ is totally sufficient in every
situation for a life of Godliness as we surrender ourselves
and trust in Him. Our mission is to provide the opportunity
for others to grow in Christ by enjoying and meeting with
national and international speakers as they share their
experiences of the Christian life. Flowing on from this we
have an extensive "tape" ministry supplying tapes, CDs, DVDs
& books of speakers Australia-wide. Run by a group of
passionate volunteers, Capernwray Qld has impacted thousands
of lives with the message of "Christ in you, the hope of
glory" (Col 1:27).
Capernwray Torchbearers Queensland enjoys providing a platform for international
& local speakers to share their personal experiences of
Christian living. At all our events you will enjoy
challenging Bible teaching presented with clarity,
sensitivity & Christian love, along with great music &
fellowship.
We'd love to be able to assist you in your faith journey. We
invite to join us for a conference, attend an event, enroll
in our Bible school (all-ages) in NSW, or to order books,
DVDs or CDs - in all of which we endeavour to be refreshing.
