A Prayer for God's Gifts

Give to my eyes, Lord

light to see those in need.

Give to my heart

compassion and understanding.

Give to my mind

knowledge and wisdom.

Give to my hands

skill and tenderness.

Give to my ears

the ability to listen.

Give to my lips

words of comfort.

Give to my spirit

the desire to share.

Give to me, Lord,

strength for selfless service

and enable me to bring joy to

the lives of those I serve. Amen

Vinnies Winter Appeal, Letter of Thanks

Hats, Gloves and Scarves for Refugee families

 

Last week your amazing students donated much needed hats, gloves and scarves for our refugee families arriving into the very cold winter of Wagga.

 

Most of our arrivals have come from a warm climate so it is quite a shock when families arrive into Wagga and realise just how cold it is.

 

They have expressed much gratitude for these 'must haves' in the winter.

 

Could you please thank the students and their parents for their generosity. This has been very much appreciated.

 

Yours sincerely

Deirdre Moulden
