Reverend James Wood, from the picturesque St Pauls Anglican Church located at Burra, NSW, kindly invited members from Jerrabomberra Creek, Burra and Guises Creek Brigades to a "
Blessing of the Fleet" ceremony which was held in preparation for the up-coming bushfire season.
It was a great opportunity for the local brigades members and the community to meet each other in a relaxed environment rather than on the fireground. All attendees were very grateful for the wonderful servings of tea, coffee, scones, cakes and a lovely BBQ to top it all off! Thank you to the members of St Pauls, Burra!
