Street party or PeaceChurch – why not both?

Both happen once in a blue moon. Must be a blue moon tonight ‘cos they clash. Our street Christmas party is late because this is the first Sunday we’re all here at the same time – yep, since Christmas 2010! PeaceChurch happens when we have something significant to process and that was scheduled for tonight as well. We want to to take the Reconciliation Action Plan a little further now that the Notice of Intention has been lodged with Reconciliation Australia. Sounds like a lot of rigmarole, but it means our efforts to engage in the indigenous reconciliation process are gaining some traction – even if it only means integrating celebration of significant events into the church program and advancing local education and communication opportunities. The two clashing events may, in the end, have a lot to do with each other (and we can attend both events tonight as the times are staggered).
