Easter eggs for Pillars: As we have done in previous years, we are collecting Easter eggs to be given to Pillars who distribute them to the children of prisoners.

The Hospitality Team is looking for new members and volunteers. Whether you’d like to be a regular part of the team or simply volunteer as needed — providing baking, a meal, or a dessert when there’s a need — there’s a place for you! If you’re interested in joining the team or being added to our volunteer list, please speak with Christine Miller or sign up on the sheet at the entrance.
Lavender Bags for Easter Camp: Sophie is selling bags she has made with Central Otago Lavender. All funds raised help her get to Easter Camp.
Use of Emergency Exits at the Village Bryndwr: People attending Sunday services or other events who would need to use a ramp to exit the building in the event of an emergency, should note their nearest suitable exit point. Ramps are located at the main entrance, the rear entrance and the hall entrance.
The March/April birthday lunch will be on Sunday 19 April at 12.30pm. Venue: Sandra’s. The theme will be “A trip down memory lane”. To help with this please send your baby/toddler photo to Sandra by 15 April.
