After many months of lockdown, this March 2022, has been wonderful to have Bible Fellowship back at Open House.
And whilst the weather has been great, we have been taking full advantage of it, and enjoying some outings as a whole group.
The Bible Fellowship Group loves going on outings and last month we went for a drive to Sugar Loaf Reservoir Park and had a wonderful picnic lunch. Lunch was as always, made by our incredible volunteer Chef, Paul (and tasted incredible!).
After lunch we drove to the Yarra Valley Chocolaterie, to have a drink and some yummy sweets.
For many of our Bible Fellowship participants, this was a special day as they don’t often get the opportunity to go out for drives, let alone a delicious lunch.
It is so easy to forget that for many of the people that use Open House’s programs, things like this are so special to them because they usually don’t have access to these kinds of opportunities. We are so proud to be able to provide these opportunities and support our incredible participants.
