The Mission coordinator of ACACC (Australian Chinese Alliance Churches Committee) is pleased to announce its first Short Term Mission trip for all the Chinese Alliance Churches, in cooperation with the Chinese Christian Mission of Australia (CCMA).

The mission field is Vanuatu, to be held in July 2005 (10 to 14 days). The trip will be led by Miss Irene Chan, final year missionary student at the Canberra College of Theology.

The cost is about $2,000. The church has currently committed $250 in subsidies, to be shared amongst members from our church.

If you are interested, please contact KW Cheung (church deacon) by the end of March 2005 or email nscac@nscac.org.au for more details.
