2012 the Year of Freedom: for all, from all...
People finding freedom...
Welcome to the website for The Salvation Army Ryde City Macquarie Park Campus and No.47 Community Home.
No.47 Community Home is a centre run out of Mac Park Salvos, which exists to serve the residents in the City of Ryde. We run a variety of programs for kids and adults including Study Shed and Cafe 47.
Centre managers Craig & Danni don't just work at the community home - they live there as well. So if you're a resident of the Macquarie Park area and find yourself needing a hand then please don't hesitate to get in touch. A list of community programs can be found on the Community Activities page, but if you have a unique need then we might still be able to help. We'd love to hear from you!

Warcry
Short story Competition’s winners
Thank you budding writers, from all over Australia, who made a submission to our Warcry Writers Competition for 2011.
Some two dozen worthy entries were received, and a team of judges set out to grade each story. Unique qualities emerged in most offerings, and our judges made a few difficult decisions—but we emerged with three winners, featured on these pages.
The criteria for this short story contest were simple. The competition was open-aged and each entrant could submit only one story. The story must be fictional, and run about 500-550 words. While there was no set theme, we asked that at least a mention of The Salvation Army in some form be included.
So successful, we feel, this competition was—we will consider conducting a similar contest toward the end of 2012. Therefore keep your creative juices flowing.
As a wise editor I knew always encouraged his aspiring writers, 'Write On!' Read more
