About this Event
The Bridge Fellowship offers a place for guys to share their stories, experiences and reflections over breakfast, in a relaxed setting. We believe these conversations are increasingly rare, but all the more important and good for the soul.
This month we'll be hearing from lawyer-come-Minister, Alistair Bain. He'll be reflecting on morality and mortality; via his time as a lawyer, his exit from the legal profession, and more recently what a heart attack taught him about the frailty of life
In terms of breakfast, we have some delicious breakfast wraps and granola available from Macquarie Soul, as well as fresh local coffee. You can let us know what coffee you'd like (e.g. Flat White, Long Black, alternative milks etc...) in the additional information box and we'll order it from Zimmah that day. Similarly if you have dietary requirements, let us know and we'll pick up whatever you need. Please register by Wednesday if you can, as we place orders on Thursday morning.
You can arrive around 7:15am for a 7:30am start. We then finish at 8:30am sharp to allow plenty of time for getting to work. Further details for accessing the venue will be provided once you have registered.
Third Space has regularly been hosting men's breakfasts around the country. They are designed to create a space for men to share their stories of success, failure, hardship and hope intertwined with questions of life, faith and meaning. People from all walks of life are welcome, regardless of faith background, belief or worldview.
You can contact [email protected] for further information.
Alistair was born and raised in Launceston and moved to Hobart in 1991 to study an Arts/Law degree. It was while in Hobart, and while attending St John’s, that he began to understand the gospel of Jesus for what seemed like the first time.
After finishing his degree Alistair returned to Launceston and worked for seven years as a lawyer, mainly in the areas of child protection, family law, and criminal law. In 2005, along with his wife Rachel and their young daughter, he moved to Sydney where he completed an M.Div at Sydney Missionary and Bible College. During their time in Sydney, their two sons were born.
Alistair started as the Senior Minister at St John’s in 2011, 20 years after he first moved to Hobart as a student. He relaxes by playing soccer, reading novels, listening to music, watching movies, and unplugging in God's creation. He still drives his first car.
