Yesterday we had a visit from a beautiful group of people from the Buddhist Compassion Relief Tzu Chi Foundation Australia. The Foundation assists during times of disasters and will travel anywhere to help.
While at our Fire Station they took photos, interviewed members regarding the fires and volunteer service and handed out many token gifts. They sang songs of appreciation and one of our members was asked to read a short passage from one of their books which embodies the spirit of the RFS.
“It is more of a blessing to serve others than to be served”
The group left later with Clr Mick Fell to make a donation to the recovery effort.
