When our community - be it local, national or international - suffers a major disaster, it's sometimes difficult to know how to respond. We provide here a range of resources for use at times of deep distress.
Following is a list of materials that have been used for prayer during specific times of disaster and hardship.
This poem was written by Jean Mayers as a reflection on the Victorian bushfires and God's presence throughout this period of devastation. We hope that Uniting Church members and congregations can reflect upon it and gain comfort from it.
You may find the following link helpful as you prepare worship services with thoughts for the victims of Victoria's bushfires. It is provided by Natalie Sims (VicTas).
