Oh what a beautiful morning
Was rather nice to catch the 6:55am ferry this morning. Granted, it was due to my own forgetfulness and having to swing by work to pick up a consent form before heading off to a community volunteer day...

... which I'm quite excited about, actually! We'll be singing Christmas carols at Missionholme and Charles Chambers Court, which are 2 hostels for elderly disadvantaged in the Surry Hills / Redfern district. This is something I've done pretty much every year for the past several, but the first time I'll be going with a group from work. The funny thing is, part of the reason we normally go is not only to bring some Christmas cheer to what might otherwise be a lonely season, but to get opportunities to share about the true meaning of Christmas. It will be interesting to go with a bunch of non-Christians. I had to fight hard to make it more about the carols than playing bingo and giving out lollies! We'll see how it goes though - I'm praying for an opportunity to remind my work colleagues just what Christmas is all about too!
