Security

Security is a big deal with a site like we have at Sturt Road. While it's great to have such activity and such traffic, we also need to be aware of how we keep things safe and secure.

Over the weekend we had a few incidents that I need to make everyone aware of. A bit of vigilence and care will help us to maintain our premises as safe places for people to join in community and eventually join us as disciples of Jesus Christ.

On Saturday morning (between 8-9am) the front windows of our shop were damaged in an attempted break in. The back of the boy's office and the side of the Marion room were also found open. On Saturday afternoon (around 2pm) two young girls wandered into our shop setting off the alarms. This caused a bit of drama with the police and security companies trying to work out what was happening. In this case I think that it was caused by staff leaving through the front of the shop instead of the side door, leaving the shop unlocked.

Either way, let's take care of the little things, like locking up and setting alarms, t0 save our property, to save our money (it costs us every time the alarm goes and someone attends) and hopefully to save some sould through have a place of safety for them to come.
