When fires destroyed homes in Victoria earlier this term several families from Plenty Valley Christian College in Doreen were affected. Covenant Christian School community responded by raising fund by selling flowers for Valentines Day and a book stall. This week the school received the following letter of thanks.
I write in appreciation of your generous support for Plenty Valley Christian College families and staff who were directly affected by the bushfires in February.
Our College is in awe of the support that has been offered by the Christian and wider communities of Australia.
There is more to do by way of assistance for families who lost so much and have experienced deep levels of trauma. Your involvement and generousity of spirit has ensured our delivery of practical and meaningful assistance to those in need within the College community. We appreciate your contribution and thank you in all sincerity.
Our College community has come together in the face of adveristy. Many others have joined with you in bringing about a healing process that will take some time. We look forward to the futre under the grace of God.
With kind regards
