People of various ages, occupations and religions gathered for the Day of Blessing in Te Awamutu. This event organised by the Combined Churches of Te Awamutu is into its fourth year and was held for the second time at Te Awamutu Sports. The day began with a shared lunch and refreshments. Australian guest speakers Greg and Julie Bailey, from Christian International Ministries, were back to share more about the blessings, and how other places have been affected by this world-wide event. Mrs Bailey said by TC160216CA01 blessing the good work of ST Andrew’s Presbyterian Church member Mary Morriss serves up food to its citizens, Te Awamutu (from left) Mike Hewett, Les Craig and Olive Hewett-Bryant. would prosper spiritually and in tangible ways, based on the outcomes in other places. They were joined by local church leaders, blessing and expressing their gratitude to people who make major contributions to life in the community. Guests went up in groups ranging from education, government and businesses to sportspeople, artists, musicians and volunteers. The Day of Blessing is a world-wide event initiated in America, and Te Awa- mutu is one of a growing number of New Zealand communities partici- pating. It began more than 50 years ago in Destin, Florida where the city’s fishing fleet was blessed. It is now one of the most TC160216CA03 successful fleets in AUSTRALIAN guest speaker Julie Bailey (right) helped local leaders bless America. members of the Te Awamutu community.
