Anchor Club
ABOUT ANCHOR
Anchor is our group of youth from Year 8 onwards. We meet each fortnight at church straight after school for afternoon tea and run till 5pm. Our group’s aim is to have times of bible study/film/talk as well as help out in the community. One year we’ve visited the Nursing Home and assisted several times with the kids program at Community Kitchen. We make time for fun things too playing Lazer skirmish, tenpin bowling, watching movies and having great bonfire nights.

Anchor Report 2009
Once again we planned our year around studies, community work, fundraisers and fun!!
Our studies
–Term One was on ‘Prayer’ and when and how God answers them
-Term Two we studied Kel Richard’s Aussie Pilgrim’s Progress. We walked with ‘Christian’ (a new believer) on his quest to God’s own country (heaven) enduring the perils and enjoying the rewards he encountered on the way. We compared it to our Christian walk- peer pressure, worldly values, our Christian beliefs and staying focussed on God’s promises.
-Term Three Pastor Brenton led a short study and with the help of Neil, Michelle and Kathie Anchor organised and led a Sunday Service.
Our Community work
-Community Kitchen is held each Friday night and one Friday night a term we help with the childrens activites- playing cards, drawing, crafts etc. on our last night we made angel decorations for them to take home.
-Clean-up Australia
-Blood bank (quarterly)
-Nursing Home Christmas visits delivering angel decorations made with the help of our confirmation and JAM (infants,primary) kids.
Our Fun Stuff
-Mini putt-putt golf, slip’n’slide, icecream eat-off, go-carting with bonfire and BBQ, Swimming & end of year pool’n’waterslide party
Our Fundraisers
-Warrambui Dome Project was important to us as most kids have been to camps there. We held a BBQ outside ‘Autobarn’ on an extremely hot day!! – For our LWS fundraiser we packaged bundles of tracts and sold them for use as Christmas gift tags or bookmarks
We have a great bunch of youth & it is our privilege to encourage & meet with them fortnightly in our planned activity.
In God’s Service.
