GFS leaders prepare some items for sending to PNG.

 

GFS an Anglican ministry - at work in Papua New Guinea

 

 

The members and leaders of GFS Tasmania held their annual General Meeting in May at Nindethana camp site, just north of Launceston and amongst the things discussed was the renewal of our support for Papua New Guinea.

This year one our our leaders, Leonie Stitz, will join an Australian contingent travelling to the Oro Diocese to assist in the implementation of a training program and encouragement of GFS in PNG.

Later this year construction will begin on GFS House, supported by GFS world wide. This exciting project will provide a central meeting area for training and other GFS work.
