Thank you to ALL the organizers of the Western Volunteer Appreciation evening!!!  It was a blast, as the photo’s will show.

Everyone got in with the spirit of the evening, dressing up to compliment the décor.

Each year one area of help is highlighted, this year it was the Road Crew that were honoured.  They all received awesome T-Shirts to help them stand out and be noticed.  Well done guys on all the work that you do early on Sunday mornings while most of us still sleep.

Two other couples were also honoured for there commitment and enthusiasm first were Gary and Robyn Coleman, who from the start of the church moving to Old Mutual have been there every Sunday morning, helping iron out all the kinks to get it into the smooth running machine it is now.  Special mention went to their kids, who would tag along in the early hours of the morning, who were made honorary Road Crew members.

Another couple, Morgan and Kelly, were especially thanked as they  were a crucial element in the design and creation of InsideOut, our teen environment at The Attic (old church building).

Unfortunately, not everyone can be singled out, but everyone is appreciated for all you do.

Thank you for all your dedication and help throughout the year.

We would like to thank you all for an amazing response to our Metro Kids Africa Christmas Gift project. We have managed to reach our target of 600 boxes and more.

All the extra’s will be given to Metro Kids to distribute to children in other areas.

We still need volunteers for either 7 or 14 November at 10h00. There is going to be loads of fun, serving and connecting happening. If you do come to help don’t forget to bring scissors.

If you feel like showing off your baking skills, please bring a plate of goodies to share.

Another opportunity to get involved, is the drop off days 25 and 27 November, try to take the afternoon off, it will be an experience to remember.

Please use the reply slip so we can see how many helpers we will have.

Hope to see you!!!

WOW!!! We are making progress, we have almost reached our goal of 600 boxes.  We have an amazing 574 boxes pledged so far.

But, please do not let this stop the generous hearts, if we receive more than our goal there are many children at other Metro Africa’s sites that will be happy to receive a present.

We still need lots of helpers for the 7^th and 14^th November from 10am to pack, wrap or bring something to eat.
