School Breakfast Club

Coordinator - Shirley Purchase (ph: 6258 2252)

A team from St Paul's has been supplying a free breakfast of cereal, toast, Milo and fruit to students at Mount Rogers Community School, Melba, on Wednesdays, for about 10 years. This ministry is partly funded by the parish, partly by generous donations, and is much appreciated by the staff.

Breakfast is available to all comers, regardless of their circumstances, and is certainly a blessing to the servers and the served.

Kairos

Kairos helps bring change by offering meaning and hope to incarcerated people and their families. Through that change in each life, ripples flow out and turn into waves as one person's positive life choices affects those around them, the community in which they live - and all of our society shares the benefits. (Refer to: www.kairos.org.au)

A number of members of St Paul's Ginninderra are involved with this program.
