Lockdown has been extended for an additional week which once again means that there will be no in-person gathering this Sunday July 11. We look forward to joining with you online as we continue to unpack our 'Living Our Mission' Series, this week focusing on 'building healthy communities'.

Our building will remain closed next week outside of Salvos Connect hours. We hope to be able to update you about Sunday July 18 early next week when a plan for the easing of restrictions is released. We are grateful for your understanding and support as we navigate this uncertain time.
