WOMEN’S

there is a noticeable absence of ladies in church today. That’s
because many of our ladies are on the final day of their Women’s

their families for holding the fort during their absence. Please
pray for the ladies to have a safe return journey and a happy reunion
with their families.

THANK
YOU… Once again, this congregation has
proved itself to be a caring and generous one! A few weeks ago, the
Knysna Christian School asked for an Art teacher and a piano!
Though both these requests seemed almost impossible, we know that
NOTHING is impossible for our God! Thank you to those who responded
as the Christian School was blessed with an Art Teacher AND a
piano!!! The school is now having a massive second-hand sale on the
29th August to
raise much needed funds. If you are thinking of cleaning out
cupboards (early spring-cleaning), anything you would like to donate
would be greatly appreciated - clothes, crockery, cutlery, linen,
tools, curtains, gardening goods, plants, furniture, appliances,
toys, books, ornaments - in fact anything that you no longer need.
Transport is available, so donations of BIG items would also be
welcomed! Please call Leigh Brown at the school on 044-382 0733 or
SMS Kirsty Hayward on 082 462 5274.
