Christmas Giving

The Church Council has proposed that we direct our Christmas charitable giving towards the UCA Mission at Bridgewater-Gagebrook by providing funds for Christmas food for the 400 people they support in the area.

What they need from us is donations for the purchase of medium size “Lions” cakes to put in the Christmas hampers they distribute.  The cakes cost around $8 and will need to be ordered by the end of this month.  Please let one of the Church Councillors know if you wish to participate.

The Sunday School children will be helping with this project.

Something for the Kids

There are some new books by Andrew McDonough available in the library.

From their website:

“Way back in 1989 as a young Bible college student, Andrew was asked to give the dreaded “children’s talk” at a large church. Andrew possessed one talent: he could draw sheep. He bought some overhead projector film and drew up the story of Cecil. The congregation loved it, so Andrew continued to draw stories to use with kids and adults. Other students, pastors and teachers started borrowing the stories. . . .”

Water will possibly be one of the greatest justice issues of the 21st Century.  Our city of Hobart has an amazing and largely unknown tale of injustice, corruption and water.  Hear this and other stories of water and how it fits with the story of our faith.

For everyone who cares about justice, our planet and seeking God’s realm.
