Vision Series - Ministry Base
More than a century of prayer, sacrifice, and bold faith has built a thriving mission hub serving hundreds of people each week. Generations before us gave generously so the gospel could flourish here, and today our facilities continue to welcome church families, community groups, and local organisations through our doors. By investing in the care and renewal of our buildings, we are not simply maintaining bricks and mortar, we are strengthening a place where lives are shaped, faith grows, and our community is served for generations to come.

Moving forward to August 2023 and things have taken a turn for the worse with Les been diagnosed with yet another cancer.

As part of Rotary’s Maternal and Child Health month (April) the Rotary Club of Canberra Sundowners have committed to purchase and pack 2,000 birthing kits for use by pregnant women living in rural communities and low-resource settings around the world. Each kit contains key items to assist a birth in a remote area without access to hospitals. The birthing kits are shipped by the Birthing Kit Foundation Australia to regions in need of this type of support and have been proven to save the lives of both mothers and new-borns. Each kit costs $5. While we are using a lot of the club's raised funds and have some generous sponsors locked in, additional financial support will increase our impact. If you are able to donate to support the event, you can also do this on this page. More information on the Birthing Kit Program is available at https://www.bkfa.org.au/.
