18.01.2022 Wonderful news for all Victorians!

18.01.2022 You will notice when you walk into the Community Centre (hopefully very soon) that we have a large beautiful framed print on our wall. The piece was originally painted with acrylic on canvas and was painted by a Melbourne based Indigenous artist by the name of Safina Stewart. This is the story behind the artwork titled Bunjil. Bunjil flies high over the Yarra River watching over all he has created.... Bunjil (the eaglehawk) represents the Creator Spirit; The set of three wavy lines represent the Yarra River in Victoria; The campfire circles symbolise families and communities of the Kulin Nation gathering together; The straight lines are the paths and relationships that connect people to each other; The three large circles and lightning represent the power of prayer, worship and relationship with the Creator. This painting of Bunjil is about how our Creator is lovingly watching over, protecting, providing and participating in relationship with His creation. It beakons our response to the invitation to be in relationship with Him as we live in connection with each other and the land. You can take a look at Safina’s other works on her website. They are just gorgeous. https://artbysafina.com.au/ #bunjil #indigenousart #safinastewart

07.01.2022 This quote by John Lennon has struck a chord with me. Has it for you too? Is it because of the new world we are living in? It puts into perspective about what is important, and I agree with Lennon that the answer is happiness. Have a great day and perhaps ponder on this quote for a minute or two. #happiness #johnlennon #inspiringquote
