MODERATOR REV Bruce Johnson travelled through flood-affected communities in the Dawson Valley in March hearing from farmers, townspeople and community leaders about the impact of the floods and the progress of the recovery so far.
In Theodore, Mr Johnson, (pictured far left, with Bill Stevens and Kevin Tysoe) inspected a recently topdressed section of the church grounds that the floods had denuded.
Church members spoke of their experiences during the flood, evacuation and recovery and of concern for people suffering the worst hardships during the flood and in subsequent disasters around the world.
Financial donations made it possible to engage a local tree lopper and a contractor to top-dress the swampy part of the grounds where seating is usually placed on the grass for large congregational events, including funerals.
