Picnic in the Park:
Next Picnic - Sunday, July 24th, 2011.
Sanctuary Christian Ministries are going to be holding a church picnic at Heywood Park, Unley Park, on Sunday 24th July, between 1pm-3pm. It would be a great way to catch up with people from the church, and anyone else who you may like to bring along. All are welcome! The idea is to BYO picnic lunch if you so desire, and there will be BBQ facilities available if you are looking to bring meat as well. Located at the southern end of King William Road, Heywood Park has plenty of native bushland and is a lovely spot for families. It has on-site parking (Addiscombe Place), a couple of on-site electric BBQs, large gum trees, a playground, and wide open spaces. If you plan to come, it would be a good idea to bring a few chairs for yourselves too. Attached is a map of Heywood Park's location. Any queries - feel free to contact me on 0403313912, or johndelmusic@gmail.com. Would love to see you there!
Snow Trips at Mt Hotham in 2011:
Season Starts - June 6th, 2011.
Sanctuary offers a variety of low-cost, no-frills trips to the Victorian snowfields. The time it takes to travel to the snowfields from Adelaide varies from 12-15 hours. We can scale up or down aspects of each snow trip to cater for your interests (and budget?).......such as accommodation arrangements, food provisions, extra snowboarding equipment, sightseeing time, helicopter travel, etc. Prices vary accordingly. Even if you don't want to go snowboarding, you can still come along to go skiing (you need to bring/hire your own ski gear though) or just to experience fun in the snow. Weekly trips are planned subject to weather conditions and snow levels. Bookings are essential so contact us for exact trip dates, prices and available seats. More details are here on the snow webpage.
Cost starts at $250 pp (1-day) and $1,250 (1-week).
Skydiving Trip:
Next Trip - Saturday, August 13th, 2011.
Sanctuary Christian Ministries are holding our 2011 skydiving trip in August, on Saturday the 13th at Lower Light. This is our third skydiving expedition and we can testify it is unlike any experience you have ever had! It is also a great opportunity to share what we do as a ministry with others and be a witness for Christ in a different setting. If this is your first sky dive, you may want to consider jumping from 14,000ft ($499), which allows up to a minute of free fall time. There are options to jump from other altitudes as well, the lowest being 8,000ft ($319). The sky diving trip has been booked through Adelaide Tandem Skydiving at Lower Light, just north of Two Wells and you can expect stunning views of the countryside and the Gulf of St Vincent as you hit terminal velocity! On the day, meet us at Sanctuary Surfers (201 Waymouth Street, City - opposite Koorong) at 7am. Please send an email or contact John on 0403313912 to organise payment of the deposit through Sanctuary Surfers. The $150 deposit is required before July 9th, in order to secure the bookings. If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch. We would love to see you there!

Flinders Ranges Trips:
Next Trip - [yet to be confirmed].
Winter is a beautiful time of year to visit the Flinders Ranges, and so Sanctuary Christian Ministries will be doing a quick weekend camping trip to Wilpena Pound, travelling via our 25-seater bus and additional private car if required. If the bus is already full, then you are welcome to organise your own vehicle (or car pool) to travel there. We have a powered site booked, with BBQ and outdoor kitchen facilities and all you need to do is bring a tent (or arrange a tent with others), sleeping gear, toiletries, food for yourself and a Bible. This will be a great opportunity for a bit of time out, hiking and fellowship! Following a group Sunday morning fellowship, several of us will be hiking to St Mary Peak, and there will likely be a group staying back also to do an easier walk, such as Arkaroo Rock or the surrounding Wilpena bushland. This trip is not meant to be a huge expedition, but just a fun getaway for the weekend! That said, we definitely have plans next year for a longer trip with more scope for activities such as abseiling, stargazing and scenic flights. Cost is $40 per person, to cover campsite, fuel and park permits. Would love to see you there!
Cost is $40 pp.
Astronomical Stargazing Nights:
Next Trip - [yet to be confirmed].
Sanctuary Christian Ministries will again be holding a stargazing night Saturday, May 14th, where will visit the SA Astronomical Society Summer Starparty at the Stockport Observatory, 75km north of Adelaide. We will head up to Stockport Observatory arriving there around 8.45pm. You can expect to find a range of telescopes to look through, as well as the large observatory scope, a mini-cinema with DVD presentations and a BBQ sausage sizzle (extra $2.50 approx). Most of the telescopes are owned by society members and they are more than happy to show you specific parts of the night sky and talk about their equipment or anything space-related. Highlights for viewing will be planet Jupiter and its moons, which is an awesome sight through a big telescope. Also our moon, various open star clusters and the possibility of seeing planet Uranus and the galaxy of Andromeda. Should the weather be problematic, feel free to hang back with us and have a coffee and watch a movie. Cost is $10 per person, which covers all expenses.

We meet at the Sanctuary Shop on Thursday, November 11th, at 8am and travel to Port Noarlunga, SA, where we meet up with the AdventureBlus Scuba Diving Team. They will fit us up with all the scuba diving gear and show us how it is done. Then it is into the drink to look around the reefs just off the coast of Adelaide. Only 4 people can dive at a time so the dives are staggered through-out the day to cater for everyone. We will have a BBQ lunch included in the price. Bookings are limited, so don't delay.

Creation Tour Around Australia for Documentary Filming:
During 2011 [date yet to be determined].
We are considering having a Creation Tour of all of the great landmarks for demonstrating proof of the Biblical account of the flood, e.g. Eyers Rock, Flinders Rangers, etc. A film crew would be travelling with us and the idea would be to produce a documentary on the evidence of the Biblical account of creation, the flood and a young earth. This would be a great witnessing tool as well as a real faith booster for those drowning in a culture of Darwinian evolution. This could be a great Home Schooling field trip etc. Dr Tas Walker from Creation Ministries has already agreed in principle to help with such a project if it was ever organized. Please contact Pastor Neil Aitchison by sending an email to sanctuary@adelaide.on.net if you would like to be part of this activity.
Cost is [yet to be determined].
