SU Australia - Chappy Neo - Texas State School

What could $5 a month do? More than you think.

☕For 1 coffee a month, you could:

Put a steady, caring presence in a small rural school.
Give a child someone safe to talk to before things spiral.
Support families and teachers carrying more than they should alone.

As all good farmers understand, like a crop, chaplaincy thrives with consistent support and long-term thinking. One-off donations help (please donate any amount you can), but monthly donations amount to a measurable and significant impact for years to come!

If enough people committed to a minimum of just $5 a month, the cost of one coffee, you could directly help:

Keep reliable chaplaincy hours at our school
More time spent with young people, families and staff who need support through difficult circumstances.
Build a sustainable chaplaincy role for years to come, not just for me, but for those who follow.

Your investment is sewn into the well-being of future generations in a community that looks after its own!

Be part of our community's legacy!
Be part of the solution!

My Updates

Yes, I’m Losing at Handball. Yes, It’s Making a Difference!

Friday 27th Feb

I’m STOKED with the way this term has begun, stepping into chaplaincy across four unique school communities where consistent, relational support (strengthened by trusted local partnerships) is already making a meaningful difference for students, staff and families navigating complex challenges!! In Texas, my role has included being involved in and helping facilitate the school’s MMA youth program with Damien Hobson, which has provided an engaging platform to connect with students navigating identity, discipline, and belonging! Learning to feel and wrestle tensions in productive and helpful ways.

I have intentionally invested time building relational connections with high school students as they navigate identity tensions and peer dynamics, while also supporting Year 5–7 students who are in the significant transition season of early adolescence and preparing for high school….mainly me getting smoked at handball!

Much of the relational work in this school occurs informally through sport such as our whole school cross country run before school in the mornings!

Beyond school hours, connection on Wednesdays with students continues through YourChurch Texas’ newly established music program (mainly primary) and later on the arvo youth group (Year 5+). This continuity between school and community has strengthened relational trust and provides healthy pathways for belonging!

As we step into a new month, I’d love to invite you to partner with us again and make a donation! Your continued support for Texas keeps our school community strong and supported.
