The building in the flood - not at its highest. 

 

The north end of the building under water. 

 

A first look inside after the water went down. 

 

The tide line on a speaker on the stage and the mud soaked carpet

 

 

The bookshop - devastation 

 

Geoff's office 

 

Kay's office 

 

The kitchen 

 

More of the bookshop 

 

Geoff and Theresa's house 

 

And afterwards. 

Very soon after the flood waters receded, an amazing group of people worked to get the church building into a reasonably fit state for worship on the following Sunday.  Unbelievable but true, here we are.

 

Wendy led us in worship 

 

Pastor Trevor Chandler came to encourage 

 

And there were other visitors to give us support.

 

Photos of the restoration will be here soon.
