a Dave thought...
Yesterday took me to Bendigo for a visit with our new DY in Northern Vic Simon Pickens. We ended up staying for a Community Party arranged by Stuart McGifford for families in the area of Long Gully. The amount of support was just amazing as so many organisations donated their resources and time with goods and volunteers. There was a jumping castle, live band, BBQ, games, fairly floss, the drought outreach vehicle and everyone did their best to bring some hope to another devastated community. This picture was taken just 300 metres from where the party was and as you could imagine the community of Long Gully was very grateful for this initiative from the Salvos.

Just a thought.
