A note from Helen Carter

 

Hi Everyone, I have run a Communicare CMA friendship group for the elderly and disabled in Papakura for the last 7 years.

 

We are looking at starting a group in Kawakawa Bay.

 

Would you be interested in attending?

 

The group would be weekly probably at the hall and be half day with gentle exercise, crafts, games but most importantly friendship and getting together for companionship and a laugh. Morning tea and possibly lunch will be provided.

 

Sound like you or a friend or relative? Please go to the Kawakawa Bay Facebook page and register your interest on the Communicare Poll or alternatively message me directly on 021 1523840.

 

Regards

Helen

 

 

Thank you for your prayers and generous support of our church and its mission.
