The Western Victoria Division dedicated Parker Place today. As a part of the Karinya Social Programme in Ballarat, these eight housing units will be used for homeless women and their families. They are great and will signal an appropriate sense of dignity to those who will use them going forward. This is great.
There are more than 100,000 homeless people in Australia with 30,000 in the state of Victoria. Of these, 5,000 are between the ages of 12-18. This is something we have to do something about and they are in Ballarat. Congratulations to Majors Walker, the Divisional Leaders and Captain Sharon Bywaters, the programme leader.
Matthew 25:40 (NIV)
40 "The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'
