How could we as a church community engage in our world? How could we connect with the will and activity of God in our place? How could we work intergenerationally alongside our young people/person in this endeavour? It's all too hard... except Ian Keirnan has made it pretty simple for at least one day a year... that day is "Clean Up Australia Day."
It offers the opportunity for you to join with so many others from your town or suburb, picking up a pair of gloves, a bag and lots of rubbish!! Sign up as a group and be part of the local focus area effort...
Under no circumstances 'do your own in house thing' and just clean up the church grounds or the manse lawns... join in and learn something about the other folks in your place!! Sunday 4th March... if that's too soon... mark it down for next year!! http://www.cleanupaustraliaday.org.au/

we started something like this at the church I used to pastor - Opawa. We called it spring clean and asked our church to give half a day, to work in the community. over time, it was very, very effective
