Carolling

I have noticed that I have not been on the blog much this week. It's that time of year.

But the opportunities that have been presented to us already this year have been amazing.

We have been able to shine God's light through our presence at Christmas activities at:
Marion Primary School
Braeview Primary School
Brighton Primary School
Brighton Secondary School
Aberfoyle Park Campus School and Pre School
Brighton Beach
Myer Marion
KMart Marion

And we've only just begun! Within the next three weeks the band will play in Westfield, Nursing Homes and on the streets. The CSS Team will continue to connect with schools and with the community. 400 families will receive assistane with toys... and we're not sure how many we'll help with food. Another 120 families will be helped through the financial counselling service and over 120 seniors will remember their day on Tuesday, celebrating the arrival of Christ, with our Pioneer's Companion Club break up.

During the next week, the Junior Soldiers, Playgroup and Kidzone will have Christmas events and our youth group will be serving the community - they're helping sort the toys for CSS.

It's a busy season. But we love the chances we now have to mention Christ and to be Christ to our community. Think about the opportunities you will have as an individual; remember to invite your friends to our carols services on the 18th, too.
