Country Town Tours (CTT’s)
CCT’s involves visiting schools, prisons, youth groups, youth rallies, mens breakfasts and dinners, rotary, and churches with people who are draw cards and role models such as – athletes (current~ former), entertainers, personalities, business people, doctors, lawyers, computer whizzers, artists, scientists, farmers, home makers, corporate executives, sports chaplains – – -.
The long term plan to have CTT’s functioning in every State – with team leaders and a list of available people. Experience has shown that 3-4 days on the road covering 2-3 country towns is a good model. It may be that one person gives two days, and some one else another two. The options are limitless!

ART and Sport do mix
Australian Cricket Chaplain Dr Mark Tronson of 22 years has introduced “Timeout in the Tweed”, an athlete respite facility, to each of the Australian Institute of Sport units located in south east Queensland with one of his paintings.
Mark and Delma Tronson after 14 years in Moruya replicated their elite athlete ministry “Timeout in Moruya” to northern New South Wales in the Tweed in the new year and his first responsibility was to visit the AIS Sport Units.
The Softball Unit, Men’s Cricket, Women’s Cricket, the Squash and Diving Units are all in Brisbane whereas the Flatewater Canoe Unit is on the Gold Coast.
A Baptist Minister, Dr Tronson is in his 29th year in Christian Ministry and is a recognized philosophical artist leaving his Moruya “Basil Sellers Art Gallery” to the Eurobodalla Shire’s Art Council, but bought his paints with him.
“Art has a way of communicating and I utilized my art when ministering to AIS athletes in Moruya, it seemed a logical and consistent introduction”, Mark said.
His paintings are well received, such as AIS Men’s Cricket Head Coach Tim Nielsen who Emailed his thanks for the painting titled “SIX” the following day, “It has taken pride of place on my office wall and I am loving it more by the minute”.

AUSTRALIA’S BUSH ORCHESTRA TO ECO TOURISM
Australia’s Bush Orchestra a bellbird and parrot symphony tourist ministry in Moruya on the New South Wales south coast is going main stream with eco-tourism, leaving behind the niche market of Christian figures of history.
“We’ve been developing a six month plan to bring Australia’s Bush Orchestra in line with the needs of the on-site Basil Sellers Art Gallery,” explained Mark Tronson the co-ordinator.
Dr Tronson the Australian Cricket Chaplain said that engaging a wider audience across a breadth of his mission endeavours was the motivation, “It’s philosophical but also practical as it no longer requires a theologian’s presence”, he said.
A visit to Australia’s Bush Orchestra will illustrate that the Christian figures of history plaques, Nursery Rhyme Corner plaques, the John Wesley photo statute, the Reenactment, the open air chapel, and the Rainforest walk are no longer displayed.
“The first tourists since it’s face lift captured the experience, expressing the sheer enjoyment of Ironbark Walk’s birdsong followed by the pleasure of the exhibited art in the gallery”, Mark stated.
Australia’s Bush Orchestra was opened in 1996 by former Australian Cricket Captain Greg Chappell and its received wide publicity for its ‘natural creation beauty’.
“Strangely, removing a sign makes a huge difference, as the log seats which made up what was the ‘open air chapel’ are now regularly utilized, yes, enjoying God’s created magnificence,” Mark said with astonishment.
