I've been swamped and finding it difficult to reflect on life, let alone write.

For those who read this blog, I want to ask your thoughts and prayers for SHADE as it approaches Jamboree V. It is a stressful time and as always, we are short of money.

Also, please remember the Methodist Church. The debate about same-sex unions has become intense with Parliament discussing a Civil Union's Bill. Our Executive have ruled against any minsiter conducting a marriage ceremony for gay or lesbian couples. We intend to protest, and if necessary to defy this ban.

Gun Free SA has been working hard at making sure the Firearms Controll Amendment Bill does not weaken the Act. So far we've been relatively successful, but it strains the organisation's resources at a time we need to be focussing on community work. GFSA also needs to raise a wopping R600 000 to finish the year.

Mmmm, where'd I leave that Lotto ticket...
