The fun in Hay continues



Wednesday dawned a hot day in Hay, and our kids club started the morning in the Hay park and the surrounding pavilion. Despite the heat the kids turned out in force with many parents in tow, where many games were played , and songs were sung. They learnt from the bible - how Jesus healed the paralysed man who was brought to Jesus by his friends lowered through the roof.


Thanks to the lovely Hay uniting church friends who supplied a great morning tea, and kept us cool with icy drinks whilst the kids spent the morning in the sun. Wednesday kids club finished with a  science magic show ......gee it was fun to see the vinegar rocket explode all over Ed's trusty sidekick Naomi !!!! The kids also enjoyed an assortment of sideshow alley games, and all got a showbag and snow cone.

The EAC team enjoyed the Wednesday afternoon visiting a local farm in  the town of Maude and mixed with the locals over a BBQ dinner at the Maude Pub.

Thursday kids club saw us back in the local hall - this was a great blessing since the gale force winds that sprung up last year, returned to Hay last evening. The antics of Side Show Syd and the whole circus crew enthralled the kids during the morning and the kids bible lesson focused on Jesus' work on the Cross. As the photos show we are having a busy but great time.


Thursday saw the women from EAC host an afternoon tea at our accommodation at Claughton House. It was a great time relax and the women of Hay seemed to really enjoy the opportunity for fellowship and great conversation. We really enjoyed getting to know the women of Hay better.


As our time with the kids of Hay draws to a close we would appreciate continued prayer. We are thankful for the conversations we are having with the people in the town, we have been so welcomed by the people of Hay, and its been so encouraging to see God at work here this week.
