ANNUAL GATHERING

We had a great day connecting and contributing with others at the Annual Gathering on Friday, 26th March. We heard from different voices and contributions, a clear sense of hope amidst the reality of the season we are journeying through. Discussions were thought provoking and there is still much to think and pray about. We were refreshed with encouragement from the fellowship and Network we share.
