What is INDEX?
What is INDEX? An index is 'a guide or pointer to facilitate reference' towards a goal. That goal is a Biblical one: "physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come" (1 Timothy 4:8). We want to guide and equip STUDENTS & YOUNG WORKERS (ages 17-30), for the physical life in this world; but more importantly to encourage your spiritual growth in Godliness so you grow up mature and closer to the Lord Jesus Christ.

Welcome...
Well, the little Luehrmann has finally arrived. The Lord is abundantly good! Mom and baby are both doing well, and for all you who are wondering (all 2 of you) here are the details:
Name: Elijah M'Cheyne Luehrmann
Date: 6/6/07
Time: 8.01am
Weight: 7lbs 8oz
Height: 56cm
So, that means we have a few winners. Erlend guessed the day correctly and though Warden didn't go with the surname, he was right on with the historical figure that we choose for the middle name. Barnes was close on the weight (and if your guess of Murray was from M'Cheyne let me know and I'm sure we can have a prize for you too), but Elijah fell short of 5kgs.
As for our clues, if you want to shorten his first and middle name you can call him emac (thus the apple product). Rich Mullins has a song by the name of Elijah.
That is all for now, we'll try to keep things current here over the summer.

Congratulations to you both!! What brilliant news!
Fantastic name, and I want to fly back to give him a huge hug! Glad you're all doing well and looking forward to some lovely sibling pictures of the week. We now have 2 little ones to "aww" and "ahh" over each week!
I actually dreamed last night that you had the baby but my dream was distorted, since you had a girl and names her Ruth.
I'm looking forward to meeting him!
Nice to see that the core team already has a stronger male presence on it than last year (no offence Barnes - actually a bit of offence I suppose). This big lad's going to fit right in - I can see him scoffing Laura's puddings and guzzling my Christian wine substitute drinks (think Ame or similar) already.
If I am not around next year, just do what the Mac says.
Anna you may have just had a prophecy about the next baby Luehrmann! hehehe
Yeah Mike and Emily, my dad is really quite impressed with your name choice (he's quite the Robert Murray M'Cheyne fan).
Congratulations, I can't wait to get back and see Elijah. We'd all better be careful to stop teaching our heresy of "kingdom points" or else he's going to call down fire on us!
