Mission:
In 2016 SCC are looking to deploy 2 short
term mission teams in the lead up to
Christmas. We are seeking expressions of
interest for people with a heart to serve
some of our existing missionaries in South
East Asia. The details are yet to be
finalised for this trip, but it will include
connection with some of our long term
missionaries in this region.
We are also seeking expressions from
people who may be keen to support the
work of Watoto in Africa.
If you are interested please notify the
office with your details.
Our sincere condolences to Alma Smith and
family at the loss of Frank who passed away on
Thursday 31 March 2016.
He will be greatly missed.
Our sincere condolences also to Jill &
Martin Gray and family at the loss of
Martins dad on Thursday 31 March 2016 in
the UK.
