Songs and inspiring stories at Stonecroft

Hearts and prayers are with Steve on this difficult and personal journey.

Feet tapped the floor and voices sang along to the music of Delphinus, aka Tommy Fraser.

He describes himself as ‘an ordinary man with a passion for singing and touching the lives of people through song’.

It was also a treat to listen to familiar songs in such perfect pitch and incredible sound by Al and Guili Cambell.

A show to be remembered by the guests of Stonecroft.

As with any performance, many hours of rehearsals go into preparing for it.

Those hours showed, and guests thoroughly enjoyed the music of yesteryear.

Once again, the WA Ladies from Shelly Beach Methodist Church rose to the occasion and spoilt the guests with an array of eats before the next speaker, Steve Mortinson, took the microphone.

What a story Steve had to tell.

There was not an ounce of self-pity as he explained the areas of cancer in him as if pointing out rosebushes in a garden.

His practical and solid advice reached into the core of the hearts of those present, giving them a better understanding of the lives of those living with cancer.

Preparing paperwork and saying goodbye are options many folks don’t have, as Steve pointed out, and that one should see this time as a blessing, even though it takes great strength and courage.

Hearts and prayers are with Steve on this difficult and personal journey.

The next Stonecroft morning tea will be at the Shelly Beach Methodist Church on Friday, May 24, at 09:30.

Booking is essential, so contact Vanessa on 082 8181449 to reserve a seat at R50pp.

Guest speakers are Sonja Human and Robbie Hayes, with dancers from Elvira Venter School of Dance entertaining guests.
