At the recent meeting of Grace (Grenfell Association for Christian Education), members were introduced to Rachael Bell, the Scripture Union (SU) Australia Field Development Manager for our area.
She was here especially to congratulate our own Tim Walker on five years with SU Australia, and present him with a Certificate.
Tim teaches the Special Religious Education (SRE) course at Henry Lawson High School and other schools in the area. He is enthusiastic about his role and it was great to see his efforts acknowledged by SU Australia.
We were also pleased with the results of our Friday Street Stall. In all, we raised just over $1,000 in support of SRE in our schools, which is a wonderful effort.
We would like to thank all the bakers and cooks who donated cakes, biscuits, slices, jams and lemon butters, as well as fresh produce, for their effort in making our stall such a success, and the volunteers who took an hour or two out of their day to man the stall. And a very big thank you to all generous Grenfellians who visited the stall - every cake and slice was sold by 1pm.

We are also organising another fundraiser: a trivia night on Saturday, 1 November, at 7 pm, so mark it now in your calendar.
We hold this every year and it has always been an outstanding success. Entry is $10, with BYO nibbles, and we are also planning to hold a ‘silent auction’ on the night. We will provide updates closer to the time.
