Grow Ministries Faith at Home
Dear Church Family,
Life presents many challenges (“Tell me something that I don’t know,” I hear you ask!) When someone does something that offends or hurts us, our relationship is damaged. It can be difficult to process. Forgiveness is powerful and healing, but can be difficult to give. This week’s GFH resources offer some thought provoking conversation starters and creative responses to try out with your family.
God bless you and your week!

Thanks from the Family Hub
From Kathlene, at the Family Hub:
“Working from the soon to be sparkling premises – could you please pass on our sincere thanks to everyone for their continued support? We are in the position to add cleaning products to food assistance and also to share some of these products when home visiting – this will better protect staff when out visiting too!
The continued support is magic. As I mentioned yesterday whilst the products are fantastic for me, it is more about knowing that we have the support.
It appears the Church congregation have our back – MUCH appreciated.
Knowing this makes the day to day dramas easier – THANK YOU!
The Family Hub Support Team
