At Café church our theme was Jesus is the light of the world and as we made our beautiful tea light candles each table completed the sentence, such as ‘Jesus is the light of the world who leads us home.’ Or ‘Jesus is the light of the world who lights up our lives.’  The café tea was spectacular with schnitzel, salad and pilaf followed by apple crumble. The cooks excelled themselves. We wound down the evening with a meditation on Psalm 63.

Adrian Lane from BCA visited Swan Hill on Sunday 14^th of February and preached at Christ Churh in Swan hill and All Saints at Nyah West. He updated us on the work of BCA and preached on prayer taking his text from the persistent widow. The photo shows the congregation at Nyah West who were joined by some MU members from Swan Hill. They joined us for lunch and then had their monthly meeting.

Billy Jonathan Lowe was baptised by Canon Heather Blackman on Saturday 6th February at Runciman Road Sandbar.   It was a beautiful sunny summer morning.  The Altar was set with the church symbols, bringing church to the river for the 55 family friends and Christ Church Swan Hill Congregation members who gathered there.  The normal service and symbols were used in the baptism and it was celebrated afterwards in the usual way – with cake

After 10 years as our superbly organised Art Show Coordinator Margaret Crilly is taking a well earned rest and unfortunately no one else has stepped up to take her place.

So sadly we must announce that there will be no Art Show in May this year.

We are hopeful that by 2017 we might be able to take it up again; perhaps just for every second year.  If there is anyone interested please contact me on 0439757278.  Many thanks to the wonderful teams of people who kept this going over the past 40 years including coordinators, contributors and sponsors.
