Dozens of walkers took part in the ‘We Walk The Walk’ fundraiser campaign on Saturday 17 November, which covered 30 kilometres from Berwick to the Hillcrest Christian College Oval.
“Five walkers completed the entire 30 kilometres with other faithfuls joining in at intervals and spurring them along the way,” Senior Pastor Kerrigan La-Brooy said.
“Heartfelt thanks to those who couldn’t be there on the day but contributed monetarily.”
Pastor La-Brooy also thanked those who provided cold water and icy pops, as well as assisting with baby-sitting, driving and providing supplies.
