Message to the Movement - October 2023
We're helping to end homelessness
This year we announced that as part of Vision Builders, we are continuing to support Hutt St Centre.
Join our team or donate here.
While there will be financial contributions from Vision Builders across 2023/2024, the first part of supporting Hutt St Centre is to gather a group of people to participate in their annual fundraising event, Walk a Mile.
This August, just after National Homelessness Week, well be walking a mile (or more!) to raise funds for the 6,000 people experiencing homelessness in South Australia. All funds go to Hutt St Centre who have been supporting people for more than 68 years by providing a hearty meal, a hot shower, all in a safe, welcoming space. Wed be so grateful for your support!
If you cant join us (we'd welcome the company), please consider giving to our team via our donation page (this is on top of any Vision Builders contributions).
Want to find out more? Talk to our team leader, Juz!
Juz is organising a group to walk a mile after church on Sunday 6 August - bring your walking shoes!
Together we can help end homelessness.

Supporting our Fiji build team
UPDATE: Thank you for your extreme generosity - all extra team costs were covered!
"Bula"
Our Fiji house build is only 2 weeks away and we are thrilled to be sending a team of 11 this year!
The house build cost is covered by your Vision Builders giving but there is an extra cost for food and transport of $250 that each team member will incur, on top of the flights and accommodation they have paid for out of their own pocket.
We would love you to be a part of supporting our team with this cost and will be giving you an opportunity for that, this Sunday 21st May.
This will enable us to offset some of the cost for those going on the build trip.
Thank you for your support.
Chris & Vicki

The OddFather Podcast
Here's a little side-project that Ps Chris and Pete have been working on.
It's not a C3 Norwood project/program, just a hobby project that you might find relevant/helpful/interesting :innocent:

A Bag Filled with Love
We're collecting food items to fill bags for families at our local Women's Shelter at Christmas time. Here are some ideas of things to contribute.
We aim to bless people with top-quality items, so please no second-hand or cheap no-name brands.
