Thousands of people across Australia share God’s love through the Christmas Bowl.
As a Christian, Reverend Frank Byatt believed he had a responsibility to share the joy of his Christmas with our brothers and sisters in need. That’s why, on Christmas Day in 1949, he placed a Bowl of Remembrance on his dinner table and asked his family to place a generous gift in it to “share your good dinner with hungry children in other lands.”
This year, you continued that tradition in your homes, churches, and communities – volunteering your time, organising events, taking up collections and placing bowls on your own Christmas table.
We share some of the best moments from your Christmas Bowl events.
