A Summer & Winter Greeting
As summer unfolds in Sweden and winter makes itself felt here in Australia, the Swedish Church in Melbourne is now entering its annual winter break. For a few weeks, our activities will pause and our staff will have the opportunity to take some well-earned leave before we gather again in early August.
We would therefore like to take this opportunity to send our warmest greetings and heartfelt thanks to all of you who, in one way or another, are part of our community – wherever in the world you may be.
For many, the months ahead will bring summer days in Sweden filled with bright evenings and time spent with family and friends.
Here in Australia, we are instead moving into the winter season, with crisp mornings and a slightly slower pace of life. Wherever you may be, we hope this time offers space for joy, rest, and new experiences.
Thank you for all the conversations, services, coffee gatherings, activities, and moments of fellowship we have shared during the past six months. It is you who make the Swedish Church in Melbourne the warm, welcoming, and vibrant community that it is.
We wish you a wonderful summer and winter and look forward to welcoming you back when the church reopens on 11 August.
A warm welcome back!
