Gunnedah Shire Council supported by the Gunnedah Ministers’ Fraternal will hold a Prayer for Rain on Sunday, January 12.

Gunnedah Shire residents are invited to stand together to send up a plea to end the drought at the Smithurst Theatre from 3.30pm.

“Our strength is in our unity, and combining our voices at this community event is a wonderful way to give each other support,” Gunnedah Shire Councillor Gae Swain said.

“Our community has shown great resilience, but the drought is taking its toll.

“If we join together in faith, we not only acknowledge the tough times, but look to a strong future.

“I invite all our residents to come along.”

Light refreshments will be served at the event.
