Christmas Cheer

It's that time of year again, when our church has the opportunity to support many in the community that are "doing it tough". We are grateful for the generosity of the community that make it possible for us to support hundreds of families each year. Today, alone, over 300 families from around Adelaide's south are going to receive toys that have been channelled from the KMart wishing tree through our Community Support Services to those who need some help. 

We are also grateful for the support of Bunnings and Westpac that each year send us teams of staff to volunteer to help us with the distribution. On top of that, of course, is our incredible staff and volunteer team who are working away as I type to make it all happen. Their dedication is second to none.

We pray that there will be 'cheer' spread as a result of this effort. We also pray that the love and community that are generated will transform someone's Christmas and will point to the Christ child that started the whole thing.
