Fellowship Day at Beulah
Beulah Combined Adult Fellowship held its annual mission day on Thursday May 14 at the Keith Warren Fellowship Centre in Beulah.
About 30 women attended from Beulah, Hopetoun, Rainbow and Warracknabeal church communities.
Devotions were led by Jenni Turnbull on Jesus as the great missionary, along with a story of an 80-year-old woman who had been a missionary all her life.
Members enjoyed a lively and interesting presentation by Hopetoun Southen Mallee Co-operative Parish minister Susan Pearse.
Susan reflected on her life as she moved from a young person through university and her career as an occupational therapist to her journey into the Ministry.
She studied part-time for many years, first to satisfy her thirst for greater knowledge of Theology since becoming a Christian, and then to become an ordained minister.
Susan has been in Hopetoun for over five years and enjoys interacting with the whole community through Church, School, Korong Village, or wider community activities.
A large platter of homemade biscuits was presented to Susan in thanks for her attendance and insight into her life.
Proceeds from a well-stocked stall and free-will offerings will be used to further mission work supported by the fellowship group.
A delicious afternoon tea concluded the afternoon.
