Schools

As The Salvation Army we are privileged to be invited occasionally to share in schools.

This morning I spoke to the year 10s at Tabor College. They are doing and assignment on poverty and homelessness. I was, of course, able to share about this from both a domestic and international perspective, and speak up about the role of The Salvation Army. In doing so I was able to speak of The Salvation Army as a part of the universal Christian Church and our motivation for working in the community.

The students were very receptive. We were able to use the opportunity to also promote immersion experiences and volunteering and fundraising opportunities. Thes experiences can bring the kids into better contact with their world, assist their community and introduce them to our churches.

Pray for Julie Davis. Next Wednesday she will be sharing with some of the primary aged students at Immanuel College in Novar Gardens.

  1. That's great to read about this Brad.
    Tabor is the school our 3 children attended (formerly Bethesda Christian College) and I also worked there for 7 years as a teacher aide.
