Grain Shed

With April in full swing and children back to school, Victoria that is, here at the Grain Shed most of our activities are back on for Term Two.

Mainly music resumes at 10am on Monday, April 22.

All of us on the team are so looking forward to catching up with everybody.

This is a wonderful music interactive program for little ones with parents/grandparents/carers, followed by morning tea and playtime. It is $5 per family.

This Sunday, come along, invite a friend and join our service at 10am.

We invite you to stay for fellowship with a drink and something to eat.

Grain Shed kids, you still have another week before your program starts, however there are activity packs waiting to be picked up.

The craft women meet Thursday, 10am to 12pm.

Over the past couple of weeks we have seen an increase in demand for our Hampers of Hope, if you are in need of assistance or know of somebody then please contact us.

Our Hampers are primarily funded by financial donations and if you would like to assist us, then donations can be made to Careworks Community Funds are as follows BSB:703810, ACC:05300526

Swan Hill Anglican Church

What meaningful services were held for the Easter week.

The many who attended departed on Easter Sunday with renewed joy in our Lord.

Last Saturday, a well-planned working bee was held and most of the listed tasks were completed. Some still to do are on the list in the porch.

Thank you to all the volunteers who keep our property in good order.

This Saturday is the monthly Boot Sale with all the usual treasures and options, including scones and the barbecue. Near the Boot Sale behind Anglicare, volunteers will be staining the deck ready for the winter weather. Thank you again volunteers.

On Sunday, there will be the 9.30am service in Swan Hill followed by the 11am service at Nyah West. All are welcome.
