The second day of our WYD hot cross bun fundraiser. Success #2. Although Farrell and I were blocked with a full teaching day, it's great to know we have our coordinators support all the way - even for menial reasons, like setting up tables in Town Square. As I quicklywalked to Towns Square to help out, in the corner of my eye I see a crowd around our usual table and knew it was going to be another success. 7 dozen chocolate buns sold in 15 minutes. It's quite easy selling this off, but so much harder for the fruit. Even teachers loved the chocolate flavour!
I really feel humble knowing that although the WYD fundraiser are going towards funding people (aka Farrell and I) and not so much as a charity group, people of this school community still offer up their support and their time for this cause. Namely our helpers who are mostly in year 9. I knew I had to say thank you somehow, so shouting them a hot cross bun each was the least I could do for their gratitude. The look on their faces were priceless because they didn't expect a reward in return. This is exactly what Jesus taught the disciples - give without counting the cost and he will bless you tenfold (Proverbs 10:12). My tenfold is the simple fact that we are suported in our mission for WYD - and that is enough for me. God bless St Clare's.
