Seaside Rock
Broome Seaside Rock Holiday Kids Club
Praise God for the enthusiasm of youth! For the third year in a row we have enjoyed the blessing of the Reformed Churches of Perth’s Target 21 team coming to Broome to help run our annual kids outreach – Seaside Rock. Running from Tuesday to Friday in the second week of the school holidays the team danced, sang, acted, ate, drank and crafted the Gospel of Jesus to nearly 50 kids from Broome. A number of kids responded positively to the gospel message and asked Jesus to be their friend forever! During the week the team also helped to run a teenage outreach with a movie, bonfire and BBQ evening on the beach. Eight teenagers attended and enjoyed the interaction with the team. On the final Saturday we spent the morning at the brand new, not yet officially opened Nursing home and delighted residents with plays, songs, a talk and a BBQ lunch. This was a great experience for the team and received great thanks from the nursing home staff and residents. Finally, the team also ran a Sunday@5 cafe church service in our beautiful church gardens which was attended by a number of church regulars and also visitors from interstate. Target 21 is a training program for up and coming leaders from the Reformed Churches and this year included 11 participants who raised all their own support to come and minister to us in Broome. The team went home exhausted but excited about the impact they had on Broome for the kingdom of God.
