UNCLE CLAUDE ROBERTS

UNCLE CLAUDE ROBERTS

Claude Roberts late wife Aunty Larna originally had a vision of a church being built on the Dunghutti land at Nancy Ellis St, West Kempsey.

After the passing of Aunty Larna, Mr Roberts (or Uncle Claude) reached out to Redeemer Baptist School who he had heard had completed similar projects in regional Indigenous communities in the past.

Jonathan Cannon met with Uncle Claude who began discussing a plan to bring Larna’s vision to life.

CONSTRUCTION BEGINS

Construction started with the clearing of the land before the metal structure was assembled.

A SEVEN DAY CONSTRUCTION

A SEVEN DAY CONSTRUCTION

With the help of qualified tradies - including electricians, carpenters, builders, a plumber, a town planner, and an architect - our Year 10 students and senior Construction students successfully completed the construction of the shelter for the Kempsey AICM ministry which serves the needs of Aboriginal young people and families in the Kempsey region. The work, from excavation to completion, was done in just seven days!

PROMISE

PROMISE

All those present spent some time painting a canvas that remains in the centre. It is the constant reminder of the promise now fulfilled and that what God has promised will happen.

So here’s what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life—your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life—and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him.  (Romans 12:1, MSG)
