What a great occasion
Tuesday evening was , when ten students from Swan Hill College under the eye of teacher Kylie Gardner prepared and served the parish family and friends with a delicious array of food
for “Pancake Night”. The meal went far beyond the traditional pancakes. First course was a pancake pizza, a chicken and white sauce filled pancake and salad. Traditional pancakes we
re served for desert with maple syrup or other flavored toppings, ice-cream and fresh fruit.
The catering facilities provide an excellent training ground for young people entering the hospitality industry and we are grateful to those in the parish who had the foresight to make the Anglican precinct one for the benefit of the wider community.
As the thoughtful season of Lent begins, there are more opportunities to serve our Christian calling thoughtfully and prayerfully.
Each Saturday at from 11.00 am people are welcome to drop in for a cuppa and if they wish to go then into the church and join the music group in practising the dozen songs and hymns to be part of the 9.30am Sunday service. All are welcome to this special aspect of worship.
Each Monday there will be Midday meditation in the Memorial Courtyard, to rest in silence with our Lord. Monday evening offers a Lenten study, which will also follow the usual Wednesday 10.00 am service.
Rather than give up treats for Lent, why not give up a bad habit, or take up a good cause to support.
Many prayers for a meaningful and rewarding Lent.
