In the midst of adversity a church cares for others


Julie:
In March the South Turramurra in Sydney, Uniting Church building was completely destroyed by fire but it has not stopped the congregation from caring about the plight of others. Recently I had the privilege of speaking about the work of the Rural Chaplains to members of the South Turramurra and Turramurra churches. They were a great audience with lots of good questions but the biggest surprise was at the end of the meeting when the Ladies Fellowship handed me a sizable cheque to help support the rural work. I was really touched that even though they face the mammoth task of rebuilding their church they are still able to think of others.
