The Salvation Army has always been fortunate with the opporutunities that the public afford us. We are grateful to God for the good favour with which our church is held.
This week is the Royal Adelaide Show, which I'm sure that most of you would know. During the course of the show, there will be a number of ways that we are able to connect with the community. Most people going to the show would have already seen collectors at the gates. Some of the money raised will support our youth and children's ministry, and some will be supporting our Glenelg outreaches.
Inside the showgrounds, we have people stationed in the Jubilee Pavilion as part of the "Yellow Brick Road". Each person on the YBR that attends our stand will recieved something to eat (a fruit bar) and information on our churches and social services. Kathleen Pearce was there last night and can fill you in on some of the ways that the outreach works.
Also, on Saturday there will be a Salvation Army band on a few stages at the show, including in the Goyder Pavilion. This is a combination band from a number of Corps, including Marion.
All in all, plenty of ways for our church to be exposed to the community and create conversations.
