Jesus said to his disciples

‘Go into the whole world and proclaim the Good News to all creation.’

There are still dark aspects to our world and to our neighbourhood that need the Good News. Answer the call to

‘Go and teach all people my Gospel. I am with you always, until the end of time.’

100 Years of Electricity

However, in a referendum of ratepayers, the majority approved the project and residents were able from May 1909 to have electricity.
