175 years for First Church

The First Church of Otago recently celebrated their 175th birthday with a big birthday bash on the church grounds.

Joy and Ruth manned a stall raising funds and awareness for the Family Works Foodbank. They enjoyed a number of conversations with people of all ages enjoying the sunshine and music.

The Stepping Stones crew go to camp!

The Stepping Stones group recently returned from their annual camp and would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who supported them.

They have been busy raising money for their extra activities through garage sales and craft markets.

For many of the Stepping Stones whānau, camp is their only opportunity to leave the city and experience a new environment. Trying new activities while growing friendships and having fun.
