Volunteers Sunday

Throughout the year we plan events that help us to recognise the contribution of our volunteers.

The latest was a special Sunday service that celebrated their service, recognised their contribution and offered a small gift in thanks.

Perhaps the best part of the morning was the interviews with Susan Lynch and Bev Cairns. I loved the simple statement from Bev, when asked, "What keeps you coming back?" "God!"

Susan spoke about how she was surprised by how welcoming the team were at Ascot Park, and how she loves being able to use all of her talents in her role.

Those that serve alongside us - soldiers, friends, adherents, employees, volunteers, advisors, collectors and so on - all contribute to our mission to shine God's light in Adelaide's south so that others join us as disciples of Jesus Christ. Each of them make up an important part of the life, community and transformation that we offer to our local area.

Thanks to all our volunteers.
