LCA Story of the Week:
Finke River Mission is arranging commemorative activities in Central Australia this month to mark the centenary of the death of Lutheran missionary Carl Strehlow. Pastor Strehlow is most remembered for his service among the Western Arrarnta people at Hermannsburg (Ntaria). Visit www.lca.org.au/sow to read the story and find promotional resources to share with your congregation and friends.
Delicious and Delightful:
As a part of our continuing support for our wider community, our church would like to participate in our annual ‘Delicious and Delightful’ festival to be held on Saturday 27 August. After consulting with the ‘Delicious and Delightful’ committee, it is thought that we could run the children’s activity tent. As we haven’t had our usual Holiday Fun Time, we are hoping we could put our talents and resources into this event. We are looking for volunteers to:
· organize activities for in the tent
· supervise activities on the day
· sell tickets for jumping castle
The activities for the children will be craft related. The tent will be running from 12 midday through to approximately 6pm. We will have a rooster set up so even if you have one hour to spare, it will be greatly appreciated. Or maybe help prior to the event by organizing craft activities. It is thought that we could either wear our blue St Mark’s shirts or our HFT blue shirts (with something underneath them for winter!) We also need a few people to help coordinate this. Anyone interested in helping, please see Lois Strand or Cameron Brauer.
