ALSO
We pass on thanks to Gavin Bell and his work with MARSS for what was again a fabulous, uplifting, fun, illuminating hosting event.
The place of the refugee / multicultural sub group in SJA, and most importantly within our community, is basic and increasingly vital to support those who may be marginalised or vulnerable.
We start within our Bega Valley and achieve what might be possible with support.
There are many many issues that arise before and during the arrangements with 46 folks coming to our most generous host families ;
Resolved with such clarity and diplomacy by Gavin.
Thank you Gavin, thank you host families and again the impact and stories that emerge are so profound.
This fifth such hosting event has again reminded us of our need to understand and respect all humanity.
Gavin expressed it powerfully and with passion the words of the song “ Imagine “ .
Imagine The world as one !!!!!!!
This is SJA
What can I do?.. How may I help ???
Cheers
