As Rural Chaplains Julie and I attended as disaster response is an important part of our role. It is pleasing to see that our state co-ordinator Rev. Dr. Stephen Robinson has moved our committee forward to the point where we have a clearly defined role and parameters to work with.
The Uniting Church in NSW is working towards a Memorandum of Understanding with the NSW State Government so the Uniting Church will have a key role in co-ordinating Pastoral care in relief centers.
Julie and I hope to participate in critical incident training this year so we may have the skills to support those affected by disaster.
