Message for Australian Council of Churches Christmas Bowl of Rememberance Appeal
Once again wo are being asked by the Australian Council of Churches to give our financial support to the Christmas Bowl of Remembrance
I commend the Appeal which every year for the past fifteen years has brought help to the needy in a wide variety of ways and in many parts of the world.
The hungry, the homeless, the sick have benefited from a warm charity which ignores national boundaries and notes neither colour nor creed.
I feel sure that Australians will respond with their traditional generosity so that this inter- Church project may again meet with adequate finances the responsibilities it has undertaken.
14th October, 1963.
