Aged Care Visit

Our youth had the blessing of visiting our dear Shantha Aunty, W***y Uncle, and Mariamma Aunty. We spent time together, sang Christmas carols, and celebrated with cake.🎄

It was a beautiful reminder of the importance of love, presence, and community. Thank you to everyone who took part and helped make the visit so meaningful. ✨

A huge thank you to our organisers and thank you to everyone’s generosity. We’ve raised $535 in gift cards and collected 60 gifts, all of which have now been donated to Uniting Victoria and The Salvation Army.

Once again a testament to our community’s generosity, and commitment to supporting those in need.
