One of the meetings I attend regularly is the Uniting Church Presbytery of the Riverina Rural Committee. As the name denotes this is a church committee that is concerned primarily with rural issues that impact on the Riverina and further.
The committee has in its membership people who are passionate about rural life and what it offers. As Christians the committee members are also concerned with how their faith speaks to their lives in rural NSW.
An example of how passionate and dedicated these people are some members travel 300 kilometers to the meeting. Another member of the committee is in his 80's and has just purchased his old farm back because it is what he loves doing.
