More on the Ethos of Salt Factory

  • Authenticity or 'being real' and as honest as possible
  • At mission in our context or a bunch of people challenged to see, hear and be aware of what's happening in the lives and community of those around us
  • Exploring spiritual practices, worship and it's connections with daily life in creative ways
  • Open to a variety of people with a focus on young adults and adults identifying mission to younger generations as central
  • Fun
  • A variety of ways to gather which will happen 'monthly'
  • Perhaps a space for those who seek meaning, identity, belonging and faith shaping who are not currently connected somewhere or not finding their current connections are stretching or relevant enough [without them needing to sever those ties]

Examples of possible activity:
  • Creative worship in the Foreshore Rail Sheds
  • A Movie at the Tower Cinemas and discussion at a Cafe
  • 'Make Poverty History' Fundraising Dinner
  • Dinner and Discussion
  • Story Sharing by a variety of those connecting with the group
  • Clean Up Australia Day Working Bee
  • Creation of Vox Pop Videos
  • Free Community BBQ with sponsors
  • Fundraising for Refugees
  • Forum on Climate Change
