The practical demonstration of online ministry seminars, "One Afternoon in Sydney" has now released its flyer and its loveliness, the handiwork of OMF Communication's guru Sheron Ng of Melbourne.
Sheron Ng was one of the oodles of mission delegates who attended 'One Day in Melbourne' on 16 April at the Salvation Army headquarters in Blackburn. Sheron Ng raised her arm and volunteered as a qualified graphic designer to produce future flyers.
As chairman of Well-Being Australia, always one to jump for such brilliant communication offers, I linked up with Sheron in the breaks and then when it was ready for the "One Afternoon in Sydney" flyer, Sheron was ready and waiting.
An initial 14 June piece of One Afternoon in Sydney was followed the next day when Religious Media's Ramon Williams circulated the flyer, and today we're officially launching the flyer.
