What a perfect reminder that the small things we do can make a real difference and even change a life.
In conclusion, I think of a dear friend of mine who has invited me on several occasions to assist her church, Calvary Chapel in Chifley, to serve food to the homeless. I love getting to participate because they offer far more than food. Each person who comes to eat is greeted by a friend who is happy just to take the time to listen, to be kind and to love a brother or a sister.
I hope we will all go beyond the helpful slogans and a special day to really care about our neighbours; to not only ask, “R U OK?” but to follow up with them for as long as it takes, no matter how long it takes, till we can rest assured that they are safe.
Question resolved in the affirmative.
The Assembly adjourned at 4.39 pm until Tuesday, 19 September
at 10 am.
