Need for sponsors in Thailand

Grain Shed

IT WAS lovely to have Tonya Peters here last Sunday sharing on Compassion and its great work in Thailand.

If you would like to make a difference over there, sponsor a child. We can tell you more about it; just call us at reception on 5032 9449.

On Sunday Pastor Ian is back on the platform so come along 10am and join us as we hear a great message and get together in fellowship after the service with a nice drink and a bite to eat.

Next week, with school going back our in-house activities start up again. Mainly Music, however, will only be back from Monday, October 9, at 10am.

Thursday our craft ladies meet at 10am and Friday, October 13, at 7pm is Grain Shed youth.

Save the date: Swan Hill Christian School 30-year anniversary celebrations on Saturday and Sunday, October 13 and 14. Email admin@shcs.vic.edu.au.

Many thanks to all who have returned the filled Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes.

For any boxes that still need to be returned, drop them off next week to ensure they are included in the distribution.
