Beautiful weather, great fellowship and a fun working bee was experienced by all on the June long weekend this year.
The two Godfrey families (Brayden & Racheal and Paul & Tee and their children) and some young men (Enock, Chris and Nick) traveled down from Perth to bless Shalem with their assistance.
After experiencing a beautiful Sabbath together, we commenced work Sunday morning.
The building team, led by Brayden, started work on the small extension to the Garden Cottage.
Other Works:
Paul did some mechanical maintenance to the ride-on lawn mower and the diesel pump.
Another team – ladies and children – picked the abundant crop of kiwis, to be stored and sold at a later date.
Caleb, Chris and Nick spent time raking the Casuarina pine needles into rows for mulching in the orchard. The yummy food was enjoyed by everyone.
Thanks:
The Shalem team praises God for the volunteer's time and talents in coming over and appreciated everyone’s efforts, and extend a big thank-you to each person for their help. We look forward to the next working bee.”
