There are still places available at parish for the EHM race day on 16 May. To join one speak to Kevin Lee (9527 4317) or Colin Crawford (9699 6050).

Special thanks to the South Melbourne Community Chest. They gave EHM a grant of $2000 for its education program. The SMCC operates an Opportunity Shop in Bank Street near Clarendon Street and are always looking for good, clean items for the shop. Please support them when you have that clean out at home or you have finished with your books. Two wonderful ladies from our parish, Lil Bracken and Mavis McCormack worked as volunteers in this shop for many years. They featured in a television programme on the shop a few years ago.

We may be a little late with the news, but are pleased to advise that Ms Corrie Bray of the Emerald Hill Mission is now a new mum, welcoming a daughter, Marly, on 25 February.
