SPECIAL MEMBER’S MEETING
Our Parish Council decided last week that it would like to launch an OHSC (Outside of Hours School Care) ministry at our church, but first it wants the consent of a special general meeting of our parish. Please come along and find out more about the proposed ministry and help us make this decision. The meeting will be held in the church hall on Tuesday 1st December at 7pm.
CHURCH LOAN
Our church intends to borrow $70,000 for the purpose of improvements to our hall and grounds, including patio enclosure, outdoor equipment, safety improvements and professional fees so that our facilities might be made suitable for a potential out of hours school care ministry. To find out more please contact one of our Wardens. Any formal objections must be lodged with The Secretary, Sydney Anglican Loans, PO Box Q190 QVB Post Office NSW 1230 by 6th December 2020.
