SUNBURY AND RIDDELL KNIGHTS OF THE SOUTHERN CROSS MEDITATION DAY

Saturday some of the Knights of the Southern Cross from Sunbury and Riddells Creek took themselves on a day of meditating on God’s creation in the Darraweit area. The total silence, except for the birds and animals, and no phone reception allowed all present to relax from the working week (There was one person with a radio in his ear for the races but I guess you can’t give up everything). Some of the wives came and even a daughter and grandson.
