We hope you are enjoying the holidays. Some people have made good use of the warmer weather and gone to the beach; others are enjoying Disneyland in Hong Kong!

Wherever you are this week, ENJOY and KEEP SAFE!

Don’t forget the EPIC SUPERKIDS fun day on Thursday. It sounds like it is going to be HEAPS of fun!

It was so good to see Emily G back on her feet today. Continue to pray for Emily, that her arm will heal well and that she will be able to use her fingers and hand normally once again.

Also, don’t forget to collect donations for GET THE WORD OUT – CHINA project. They are due back on the first week of term.

14/9/14

How many of you have more than one Bible, or at least more than one Bible in the house? We are very fortunate to have our own Bibles or, at least, access to one in your house. Imagine what it would be like if you were not able to read about all the great stories and messages from God and Jesus..

There are many people in our world that do not have access to a Bible and there are heaps of children missing out on being able to read God’s Word. This is what it is like for many people living in the poorer villages of China.

Today we learnt about China, a country of 1.25 billion people. We also learnt about the Bible Society’s GET THE WORD OUT – CHINA project.

For the next couple of months we will be raising money to help pay for paper for Bibles in China. Don’t forget to fill the ‘Hong Bao’ (red envelopes), that you took home today, with donations from family and friends. You can even give some of your own pocket money, as Angie suggested!

Remember, the Hong Bao are due back the first week of term 4 (Sunday, 12^th October).

PRAY for Emily G, who had an accident while dancing, and is in hospital.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE!
