Hoodie Day

THIS FRIDAY (30th May) wear a hoodie to show your support for youth. Hoodies, like young people, often get a bad rap. But given a chance, your hoodie can be your best friend - stylish, cosy and warm! Wearing a hoodie means you care about the youth of Aotearoa.

Firezone Offering for Myanmar

Hey guys .... we collected just over $300 to send for the relief effort in Myanmar at Firezone. A huge thank you to all who contributed. Let's remember to keep those involved in this tragedy, and now also the China earthquake, in our prayers.

Myanmar Offering at Firezone

You will have no doubt heard on the news about the devastation following Cyclone Nargis in Myanmar .... the death toll is expected to be in the 100 000s. (For more info about The Salvation Army's relief work in Myanmar click here.)

During our Firezone meeting this Sunday (6:30pm at Linwood Corps) we will provide opportunity for you to give financially towards this relief work, so please come prepared to give generously to our brothers and sisters in Myanmar.
