Calling all Country Volunteers!

Know any country volunteers who might want to head to Junior or Senior camp? The CE Network and State Board will pay 50% of the fees for any country volunteer coming to 2014/15 Junior or Senior Camp and who lives more than 150km away from Mount Barker. Why we think it’s worth the investment:

  • camps gain valuable volunteers
  • volunteers are encouraged by working alongside others
  • country campers are keen to come when they know their leaders will be there

If this is you, sign up for Junior or Senior  camp, or  invite any country volunteers you know who would be keen to serve.

Your Project in August

Nicole Mugford is the first person to get $100 through the revised CE Network grants.

Nicole has been involved in CE for the last five years – 3 as a camper and 2 as a leader. After volunteering with the Country Focus team in the South East last year she felt called to move there and is now the youth pastor at Naracoorte Uniting Church.

The grant money will put on a community tea before a combined worship service to help young people get to know other Christians in their area and encourage leaders to network. Read more about what is planned here.

Volunteers and campers who were on last year’s camp are encouraged to apply, with applications closing on the first Monday of each month.

2014 AGM

Our 2014 AGM brought 35 people together from around the state, and from varied generations and denominations, all eager to hear what happened in 2013 for CE.

Find out about the year that was by reading the 2013-14 Annual Report.

We hope that CE continues to inspire SA’s young people to follow Jesus for another 126 years which is why we are eager to more people become members to help shape CE’s future in South Australia.

The Board is also seeking members to guide the organisation. Please contact the State Chair, Jessica Routley, for more information.
