In the Diocese of Willochra, there are Mission to Seafarer Stations at Port Giles, Port Pirie and Thevenard. They provide recreational facilities, counseling and assistance with a range of work-related and personal problems for seafarers of all nationalities and faiths.<\/p><p>At the Mission, the Chaplain or other volunteers give a welcome to South Australia and advice on a whole range of things. The seafarers can change foreign money, buy telephone cards and phone home from the mission. At The Port Pirie Station, access to the Internet is another contact with home which the sailors enjoy. The television and DVD with foreign language CDs, table tennis, snooker and dartboards provide entertainment.<\/p><p>The Mission Stations are able to operate only because of the work of dedicated teams of volunteers and donations from the local communities \u2013 individuals, businesses and service organisations, and congregations throughout the diocese.<\/p><p>Donations of cash, magazines and books can be made through the Diocese or direct to:<br \/>The Mission to Seafarers Port Pirie:\u00a0 ph (08) 8632 2057<br \/>The Mission to Seafarers Port Giles: ph (08) 8852 6479<br \/>The Mission to
