25.01.2022 Todays church service.

24.01.2022 Todays Church Service. Enjoy.

24.01.2022 I just found this & thought it very interesting. For all our machine sewers.

24.01.2022 This is todays DAC Church Service. Remember you can watch this anytime that suits you. If you are busy at the moment, maybe sit & have a look later today other tomorrow. God Bless

24.01.2022 Hi everyone Our Art Group spent yesterday at Pams place, where not a lot of work was done. I dont think that I blame them. The weather & view & of course catching up would have taken priority I think. Pam started a charcoal sketch, Greg worked on his Waratah watercolour, Margaret did colourful sketches of flowers and I worked on my watercolour of Towrang convict viaduct. The weather was ideal and the location superb.... So glad you all had a great day enjoying Gods gift to us. I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth. Psalms 121:1-2 God Bless everyone. . Have a wonderful weekend.

24.01.2022 A few of our crochet ladies put me onto this stitch. Am loving it. So quick & easy. I love this tutorial too. And shes an Aussie as well.

23.01.2022 Hi everyone Well, we might not be able to join all our friends at the Face to Face DAC Creative Connection being held today, due to many different reasons.....the main one for some of you might be the anxiety over the COVID-19 virus. Please know that we are making our Spaces as Safe as possible for you all. For Art, Cards & Patchwork/Craft we have met the COVID -19 Safety Plan for places of Worship & Gatherings, as required by The NSW Government in place. So, for those of... you that couldnt make it in person. Like me, due to a cold. We are running our Virtual Creative Connection Staying Connected Friday today. So I hope you have your work all set out next to you & have taken photos of what you have been up to. So that you can share them with us. For those of you who are not device savvy.......and arent sure how to share your photos.....you can always just Comment . We want to hear from ALL of you. Even just say hi....your name will pop up & others can then say Hello back to you. We know that many of you are missing the interaction with your friends and this is a great way for them, you & us to know that you are Ok. His splendour is like the sunrise. Rays shine from His hand, where His power is hidden. Habakkuk. 3:4

23.01.2022 Well, our first post will be from our Virtual Creative Connection Staying Connected Friday. Quite a few of you shared photos of your projects & commented on other peoples work. We got to see a great variety of photos. From your finished works to groups of you meeting up together & even what you were eating during the day. I have put all the photos shared during the day, below in one post, so that you can scroll through them with ease. The Post following this will be The Fa...ce to Face Creative Connection Friday. With all the photos taken there today. Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Psalm. 51:10 God Bless.

22.01.2022 Ok everyone, Im starting the Virtual day early, as I will be leaving shortly to help set up for the Face To Face day, down at DAC. And you can Comment & Share your photos right into the late afternoon. You wont see many Comments from The Team Leaders during the day as running both sessions might stretch us a little bit. We will all look through your photos & comments later in the day. I will also share in a seperate Post, just the photos as I usually do. ... So get that project out & your cuppa & cake & make sure that you all Stay Connected . Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing. 1 Thessalonians 5:11 God Bless

22.01.2022 Hi Ladies & Gents, We have decided that to keep everyone Connected we would still run the Virtual Staying Connected Friday tomorrow. At the same time as our Face To Face session at DAC. Many of you arent able to make the Face to Face sessions and we are wanting you to not be left out. To Stay Connected with Our Special Community.

We will definitely have a look later in the day & I know I am really looking forward to seeing what you all have been up to. I know I have Posted this quite early & I dont expect yo...u to start now. So sometime during the day, get your cuppa & treat ready & relax & get stuck into what we all love doing & maybe some of you are doing it with friends. And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased. Hebrews 13:16 God Bless

With the PATCHWORK/CRAFT Group, you might not be able to sit with your group of friends, due to how we have to space the tables & seats because of Social Distancing.

Always encouraging & ready to share. God Bless

09.01.2022 These could be very useful to anyone having to wear a mask for long periods of time. They look like they would be very easy to make too. I am going to have a go with the wool that I have here at hand. If you make any, share your photos in the comments section on this post.

09.01.2022 Todays Live Church Service.

09.01.2022 Wow.... how great is it to meet again Face To Face. The beautiful smiles on everyones faces as they arrived & the even bigger smiles when they left at the end of the day. All the comments made to The Team Leaders on how much they appreciated being able to meet again. It makes it all worthwhile. We love this group to bits. We hope you enjoy our photos on Show & Tell & also photos taken during the day in the Hall & Cards Area. We also have a few from our Virtual Staying Con...nected day too. Our Art Group spent the day outdoors & I am hoping to have photos to share with you in a later Post.

07.01.2022 Hi everyone, I will be combining our Creative Connection Face To Face & Virtual Days Photos in this one Post. It was so great to have those of you join us today, who havent been able to come since Covid-19 changed the way that we meet. We all had a great day in all three rooms covering Art, Cards & Patchwork/Craft. Not as much noise was heard as usual, as not as many were in the rooms, but laughter & happiness at being back could be heard even in the walkway to The Cafe ...area. And on the faces of those in our photos. I even think that some work was done on the projects that you all brought with you today. The Cafe staff cooked up Scones, Jam & Cream for Morning Tea & Pumpkin Soup or Fish & Chips for Lunch. Yum....yum...... Thank you for always looking after us. Our Virtual photos show one of you getting ready to fly on a break away, from a deserted airport & others having a great lunch break. There were a few photos of some of your projects. Lol. Just am not sure how busy most of you were working on these projects. Praying that we get to see more of you over the next few weeks. As we all try to come up with a way to feel & do things that bring back a semblance of normality, to our Covid-19 Restricted Lives. Remember to message me to book a seat on the Waiting List for next fortnight. Except Art & Cards. You will book through Paul for Art & Hilary for Cards. Those of you that havent attended since Restrictions came into place, will have first preference & working down the list, depending how many times you have been. We only have a total number of 26 in the Hall & 7 in each of the other two areas for Art & Cards. So numbers are very Restricted & we want you all to know that we are doing everything we can to make you feel Safe in these very trying times. For the Lord your God is living among you. He is a mighty saviour. He will take delight in you with gladness. With His love, He will calm all your fears. He will rejoice over you with joyful songs. Zephaniah. 3:17 God Bless .

05.01.2022 Good afternoon to all those beautiful ladies who crochet. Weve been asked if it would be possible to dress two little bassinets for Playpatch. I have the mattress and pillows ready to go but wondering if anyone would be able to make two little crocheted blankets. They only need to be a 12 square and the Playpatch Team would be so very appreciative. The photo is the colours Im using but not necessary to match up. Thank you so much for your help. Wendy

05.01.2022 Our 2nd Friday back with COVID-19 Restrictions in place went very well. A very big thank you to everyone for making it so, by following all the guideline restrictions that were asked of you. We have some great photos, taken by Leeanne Aquilina. A very big thank you to her as well. Everyone looked to be really enjoying themselves. Id say that you are all glad we are back, even with restrictions. ... Enjoy the photos below. Have a great weekend. And keep up working on all the great projects that you have on the go. Hoping to see some of them in a fortnight. I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. John 15:5 God Bless.

02.01.2022 Hi everyone Havent we had some very windy weather over the last week. Well, batten down the hatches & put on those winter woollies, as we are in for more of a cold snap tonight & over the weekend. At least when we have weather like this it helps us feel less guilty about sitting & doing any of our varied craft interests. Which most of us probably have quite a few. For all our PATCHWORK/CRAFT People. ... If you would like to put your name on the Waiting List for Friday 28th August, 2020 please Comment here. You can only add your name if you are on our DATA BASE, as we are not accepting any NEW people while we have the Covid-19 Restrictions in place. First preference will go to anyone who hasnt attended since we have been back. Then the less times you have been, the more chance of you getting a seat, as I work down the list. We have been very lucky as some of you have been able to come to both Fridays that we have had so far & I havent had to ring anyone & tell them that they wouldnt be able to attend. So dont feel that you might be taking someone elses seat as this wont happen. Everyone will get a chance to attend, if they so wish. So if you want to come, make sure that Comment here with your message & name. FOR ALL OUR ART & CARDS PEOPLE...... Contact Paul for Art & Hilary or Deborah for Cards, to book your seat. We would like to THANK ALL of you for making our jobs, as Your Team Leaders, so much easier during these COVID-19 Restrictions. You have adhered to everything that we have asked of you. So Thank You again. I will post the names of everyone who will be attending on Friday 28th August 2020, next week. I will also contact those people, with either an email or a text message. Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing. 1 Thessalonians 5:11 God Bless
