Special Interest
Following a visit with the Five Dock-Drummoyne congregation by Dr Matt and Mrs Donna (-) in August 2007, we have continued to support and pray for their linguistic work in South Asia with the Summer Institute of Linguistics. They have visited us several times since, and we receive regular emails updating us on their translation work.
We also support other Uniting Church and ecumenical projects with children, disaster relief and overseas aid.
