Kasey Holyman and
Bob Currie took part in
the 10km and Half Marathon events respectively.
Bob raised over
$1,200 and was the highest fundraiser within the
Anglicare Victoria effort.
“People were extremely generous and
you realise just how valuable everyone’s effort is
in getting to such a large
total. I was also grateful
for having the health, motivation & resources to be
able to get to the starting
line and then to finish”.

So what’s happened
to the money?
We asked if the
money that was raised by
the team could be used
within the Hume Region
& Paul McDonald (Anglicare Victoria’s CEO)
agreed that this would
happen.
To date, $600 has
gone to the Central Goulburn Parish to help fund
the School Breakfast Program in Seymour. We
will hear more about this
from Maryann & John

on how the parish can
help those affected.
Bishop John wasted
no time in offering his own
support to the southern
most parish in the Diocese
and on the first Sunday following the fires, he came
down to the parish to be
with the local community
bringing the prayers and
concerns from the whole
Diocese. He offered the
Eucharist in a special
“Service of Comfort and
Support" at both Christ
Church Kilmore and also
St Matthew’s Broadford.
Fr Kim also offered the
same service for the
people at St Stephen’s
Tallarook. Prayers have
been flowing in from
around the country, in
particular from past parish clergy and their families - from Fr Steven and
Sandra Salmon in Dee
Why NSW; Fr Martin
and Susan Johnson from
Kapooka NSW; and also
Fr Trevor and Lyndell
Smith from Triabunna in
Tasmania.
Sunday February 9th
was the start of a torrid
week in the Parish of Kilmore (and other areas in
the state). With temperatures reaching over 40’s
for a number of days, and
with the wind springing
up, it was only a matter of
time before the tinder dry
land ignited.
The media on radio,
television and newspapers
reported on it extensively.
Behind the scenes the local communities rallied to
help those who had lost
stock, fencing, housing
and farm buildings. It was
an absolute blessing that
no one lost their lives in
the worst fires since Black
Saturday, and we thank
God for this.
In the days following
the first outbreak of the
fires, Fr Kim rang everyone on the Parish roll
to make sure all was well
and to offer any assistance
if required. The Wardens Bishop John offering the Eucharist at the 'Service of

Induction in Yea Parish
BY revd thomas leslie
In sweltering 40 degree
heat, within a packed
St Luke’s Church, Yea,
Bishop John bravely
donned vestments to induct Fr Thomas Leslie
into the Parish of Yea on
Friday the 7th of February. So stifling was the
temperature that the organ gave out during the
first hymn and had to
be carefully revived by
Parish Organists Russell
Hogg and Jenny Kindred, just in time for the
Psalm!
Representatives from
across the Diocese, and
from the Dioceses of
Riverina and Melbourne
gathered for this festive
occasion, with all the
hopes and joys of new beginnings which a change
of minister entails. It was
particularly wonderful to
have, amongst the congregation, members of
the Staff and Students of
Cathedral College, where
Fr Thomas was Chaplain
for four years (2010-13).
Bishop John preached
on the importance of being a part of community,
and the role of all members of the Church as witnesses to the Gospel, before a beautiful Induction
Liturgy which culminated
with the presentation of
a vast basket of pantry
items representing the
generosity and diversity
of the parish: a generosity equally expressed in
the sumptuous celebratory supper laid out in the
hall after the service.
One of the truly wonderful aspects of this
Induction was the in-
volvement of the whole
community of Yea. Members of Sacred Heart
Catholic Parish and Scots
Presbyterian
Church
helped with the Catering
and organisation for this
event, and representatives from a wide diversity of community groups
were involved in speeches of Welcome.
The gathering of
the community, and the
breadth of representation
involved in this service
spoke so clearly of Fr
Thomas’s induction not
only into St Luke’s Yea,
but into the whole community of Yea, Molesworth, and the surrounding region: a perfect
illustration of the importance of the Church to
rural communities, even
in this 21st century.
THE ADVOCATE
From the Bishop
Dear Brothers and sisters in Christ
I write this on the last day of summer. Again we have had
experience in our Diocese of the power of nature. Dorothea
McKellar famously wrote:
I love a sunburnt country,
A land of sweeping plains,
Of ragged mountain ranges,
Of droughts and flooding rains.
I love her far horizons,
I love her jewel-sea,
Her beauty and her terror The wide brown land for me!
The Right Reverend
John Parkes AM
Bishop of Wangaratta
Here in the Diocese of Wangaratta we know much about the beauty of this great southland.
But we also know its terror. On the fifth anniversary of Black Saturday we have again
experienced the ravages of fire; in Kilmore, which was so badly affected five years ago, and
in the northwest back of Numurka and Nathalia and down towards Shepparton. And two
years ago we knew flood.
I thank God that on this occasion there were no deaths in the Diocese. But out heart goes
out to those who have suffered loss, and to those for whom the present events have caused
them to revisit the horror of 2009.
It breaks my heart that this sunburned country still demonises those who come seeking
refuge from intolerable situations. The recent events at Manus Island evidence that we have
got this wrong as a nation. Please pray for justice for the oppressed.
From a personal point of view I want to thank retiring Diocesan Archdeacon John Davis,
as well as my chaplain Rob Whalley for the significant ministry they have offered to the
Diocese and to me in their respective roles. Their vacating their respective offices reflects
the extremely tight financial constraints under which the Diocese operates. The good news
is that John will remain as Vicar-General, and Rob will continue to offer educational and
spiritual resources to us.

Teaching on the Thai-Burma Border
-With G race
As I am still in Australia recovering from the accident, I thought I would take the time to reflect with you what refugees
can of fer Australia and the harmony that we can all live in when refugee’s gifts and talents are recognised and they are
treated as people of wor th.
The following story was published in the AMES Newsletter which is an organisation that looks after newly arrived
refugees. It can be viewed at http://amesnews.com.au/lead-story/karen-nhill-experiment-regional-settlement/.
“The Karen Of Nhill:
An Experiment In Regional Settlement
A
program to settle KarenBurmese refugees at Nhill,
in western Victoria, is emerging as a model not only for refugee
settlement but also for the revival
of struggling rural towns. About
150 Karen refugees have been settled in Nhill, attracted by jobs being
offered by local poultry producer
Luv-a-Duck.
Local leaders say the arrival
of the Karen has breathed new
life into the town, bringing economic benefits and enriching its
cultural life.
Hal Loo is emblematic of the
Karen experience in Nhill. The
25-year-old apprentice mechanic
at the local Halfway Motors loves
his job and his community. “I love
coming to work and I love to go
fishing,” he says. “Nhill is a good
place for us Karen.”
Hal, his parents, two brothers
and three sisters spent years living in a tent in a United Nations
refugee camp on the Thai-Burma
border after the Burmese government burnt his village. The
Burmese Government has persecuted the Karen hill-tribe people since 1949 and there are an
estimated 150,000 Karen living in
camps.
Hal came to the town, about
350km west of Melbourne, when
his parents moved to the area to
work for Luv-a-Duck. “Coming
here gave me the opportunity to
see my dream of working with
cars and machines come true,”
Hal said. For all of the Karen of
Nhill, it has been an incredible
and unlikely journey from the
rain-drenched jungles of SouthEast Asia to the broad wheat
fields and silos of the Wimmera.
Local heroes
The settlement program was
effectively begun by John Millington OAM, who in 2009 was
General Manager of Luv-a-Duck.
With a lack of local labour to
facilitate the company’s expansion, Mr Millington turned to
settlement agency AMES to see
whether there were any refugees
willing to relocate to Nhill. After
arranging for a group of Karen
to visit the Luv-a-Duck plant and
Nhill, four workers were hired.
Now there are more than 50
Karen working at the plant and
on local farms ser vicing it. “We
learnt ver y quickly that it was
important that the partners and
kids of the workers were involved. We knew that they had to
be looked after, engaged and connected to the community or the
whole thing would fall over,” Mr
Millington said.
“You can’t have the wife sitting at home not knowing anyone and it’s the same with the
kids. You just have to put them in
touch with people and away they
go,” he said. As Mr Millington
learned more about the Karen
and their plight, bringing them
to Nhill became more than just a
business initiative.
“For me learning about the
Karen was a light bulb moment.
I thought I must find out more
about these people. I googled
them and put together their stor y,” he said. “The Karen needed
some help and given their nature and the terrible experiences
they had endured, I thought they
might be a good fit for the community at Nhill.”
There were, however, cultural
obstacles to overcome, including a fear of persecution by the
authorities. “I had showed them
a map of where Nhill was and I
told them it was ‘near the border’
– meaning the border with South
Australia. They were worried because they thought I meant the
Thai border,” Mr Millington said.
“We took them on a bus tour
around town. We stopped at the
police station and on gets the local rural cop. There was silence
and then the police sergeant
smiled and said ‘hello’ and you
could hear the sighs of relief,” he
said.
“We were worried about what
the locals would think about us
bringing a group of Asians to
town so we brought all the community leaders together as well
as the police, the mayor and the
local priests.
“Initially, we took on four
workers at Luv-a-Duck and we
made sure they were good representatives of their community.
Then they asked ‘can we bring
another friend’ and it went from
there.”
Mr Millington said that having local people champion the
Karen was vital to the program’s
success. “One of the key things
DONATIONS
experience, coming to live here
(in Nhill). Melbourne was ver y
expensive and here we had
work,” he said. “Since the Karen
settled here eight families, including me, have bought houses.
“In Burma you can just build
a house for yourself – ever y day
is free, there is no rent and no
insurance. You just build a house
on communal land using bamboo
and timber from the jungle.
“I miss my home I miss the
jungle and the rivers. But life
here is good, I like living in Nhill
and it’s a good place for my family,” said Kaw Doh, who works on
duck farms in the area.
The economic benefit
Hindmarsh Shire Chief Executive Tony Doyle says Nhill
has been enriched economically
and culturally by the Karen. “The
social impact has been extraordinar y but to see the way the
community had embraced and
open their hearts and minds has
broadened ever yone’s thinking,”
he said. “We are all enriched because of the exposure to another
culture and it has made Nhill a
better place to live,” Mr Doyle
said.
He said the challenge for his
and other rural shires is population decline which can decimate
local economies. “In retail, shops
close affecting the viability of the
whole town. If you’ve got to go to
Horsham to shop for something,
you might as well do it all there,”
Mr Doyle said.
“There is an impact on the
ability of schools and hospitals to
be funded and provide ser vices.
It affects business at all levels.
The shire’s funding is based on
population levels and a decline
has significant ramifications for
us.
“The Karen community has
provided an unskilled workforce
which has allowed employment
participation to grow enormously
and feed back into ser vices and
shops in the community in a flow
on effect.
“The Karen settlement has
been really good for us. By allowing Luv-a-Duck to grow, it has
increased the company’s demand
for more labour and essentially
protected us from population decline.”
Mr Doyle said the council
was preparing a community plan
for the Karen and overall economic development strategy for
the town. “We could double the
number of Karen if we had housing and jobs,” he said. Mr Doyle
said the council planned to lead
by example by ensuring it employed Karen.
“Nhill people are special and
ver y community focused and
they seem to embrace anyone
who comes here,” he said. “The
Karen have had an extraordinar y
impact on transforming the lives
of the people in the community
they’ve joined. It’s just an incredible stor y.”
‘Win-win’ is how the people of
Nhill talk about the settlement of
the Karen. The Karen have won
jobs and a refuge; and the town
has been given an economic and
cultural transfusion.
Hal’s employer Kim Moyle,
owner of Halfway Motors, says
the town has been given a new
lease of life with the arrival of the
Karen. “We’ve noticed a big income difference since Hal began
working here. The Karen bring
their cars in because he works
here and because we’re the
RACV agent and also because Hal
can translate,” Ms Moyle said.
“Hal’s a clever boy, he’s keen
to learn and now he’s approaching his second year of an automotive Cert III qualification,” she
said. “He goes out on RACV call
outs when rostered on and never
complains.
“It is difficult to find skilled
labour and Hal has been great for
us. He’s become part of the family and we take him ever ywhere.
“He loves Nhill and the space
here and he loves his job. It was
Hal’s persistence that got him
the job. He was a special kid.” Ms
Moyle said.
She said the settlement of the
Karen had a positive impact on
Nhill. “It’s important for Nhill’s
future economically but Aussies
can also learn a lot from them
and their values of community
and family.
“They’re conscientious, kind
and polite, they work hard and
they’re happy,” Ms Moyle said.
I wonder if there is an opportunity for our Diocese to offer the
hospitality of God in the same
way?

that made the whole thing work
was that the woman who lived directly opposite the house where
we initially house the Karen was
incredibly welcoming – she is a
wonderfully caring person,” he
said. “I went to see her and told
her I needed a grandma for the
Karen and she responded. It was
important because she is a person who knows ever yone and
ever ything that goes on in town.
“She was just wonderful and
one of the main reasons the thing
succeeded in the early days – she
was someone looking out for the
Karen on a daily basis,” Mr Millington said. He also spoke to Luva-Duck staff, explaining who the
Karen were and when they had
come from while giving assurances that the Karen would only
get jobs that could not be filled
by locals. “We had no problems,
no bad blood. It was quite the opposite. The Karen were accepted
and ever yone was ver y welcoming,” Mr Millington said.
A mentoring program was set
up through the local neighbourhood house. “People bent over
backwards to help and we had
15 or 20 volunteers in no time.
We were ver y fortunate that this
community was prepared to help
them,” he said.
Mr Millington’s relationship
with the Karen became such that
he and his wife and daughters
visited Thailand to attend the
wedding of community leader
Plaw Ganemy-Kunoo in the Mysot refugee camp on the ThaiBurma border.
They were smuggled into the
camp at night and experienced
first-hand the life of a displaced
refugee. “It was an incredible experience and it gives us credibility with the Karen and credibility
to speak on their behalf,” Mr Millington said.
A welcoming community
One of the first Karen brought
to settle in Nhill was Kaw Doh.
He lived in a refugee camp on
the Thai-Burma border for seven
years and came to Australia as a
refugee seven years ago. He and
several other Karen moved from
their community in Werribee to
take up work in Nhill. “I found it
ver y different at first, I lived in a
big house with ten to twenty people,” Kaw Doh said.

Wangaratta music
foundation
History column
The First Church of
The Holy Trinity
Wangaratta.
- St Matthew's Albury reaps early success.
Good music has always been the hallmark of St Matthew’s Albury and musicians continue to enhance our worship.
It is our responsibility to ensure that this
tradition not only continues but flourishes and expands. Comments from
many visitors make us realise that such
fine music tradition is not evident everywhere else and we are truly blessed that
not only our current musicians but those
past have had a hand in todays joys.
The Foundation supports the youth
of the parish in disciplines of organ, voice
and guitar. Tuition is provided by external professionals from the Murray Conservatorium and a visiting organ master
from Sydney.
The most notable early success has
been the development of Oliver Hendriks
under the tuition of Dr Allan Beavis from
Sydney. Not only has Oliver developed
his liturgical knowledge and playing over
the past 12 months but he most recently
won a scholarship to Scotch College Melbourne where he will be further developed under their organ program.
Fr Peter MacLeod-Miller on hearing
the news of the scholarship said “It is difficult when setting in a long term plan of
musical development for youth to chart
a path of success. But when I heard of
Oliver’s success and the part played by
his musical development at St Matthews,
it was truly beyond my wildest dreams.
I wish Oliver all the very best in Melbourne, I know he will go from strength
to strength and he leaves with God’s
blessings and the best wishes of us all”.
Oliver’s parents, Martin and Patricia
commented “We were so excited that our
son had won such a prestigious scholarship. It is something parents only dream
of for their child. Oliver has concentrated
on his school lessons but has also committed a lot of time to his organ lessons
under Dr Beavis and John Ross at St
Matthews. We will be forever be grateful
to the supporters of St Matthews Music
Foundation and to Fr Peter for his vision
to develop the local youth.”
If you would like to support this grogram with a tax deductible donation please
chat to Fr Peter or a Warden.

Each year the Parish of Rutherglen Chiltern
presents a wonderful exhibition of floral displays
that are presented within St Stephens church. The
beauty of the flowers are entwined around a faith
based theme and this year it is focused on the simplicity of the things that children say.
The opening event will be held at 7pm on Friday the 28th March and will be officially opened by
Bishop John Parkes. Everyone is welcome to join
us for a lovely evening of fun & laughter. Enjoy
some tasty nibbles, a drink and view the delightful display, the entry contribution for the evening is
only $5.00 per person
The display will then be open for viewing on
Saturday 11am – 4pm & Sunday 10am – 4pm. Light
Refreshments will be available in the Parish Hall
on Saturday and Sunday for a small charge. Take
the opportunity to see the wonderful wall hanging
in the hall that was created to celebrate the 150th
Anniversary of the Parish.
There will also be a special Mothering Sunday
Eucharist set within the beautiful floral display,
this service will be held at 8.45am on Sunday 30th
March and we encourage you to attend.
BY Sylvia Noon
I
n little more than a
year the people possessed
their
own
Church building.‘The Holy
Trinity Church’. And also
a Rectory or Parsonage as
it was then called. Both
were built of brick, cement
rendered and line marked
to give the appearance of
sandstone.
The
Church
was
opened for use in 1856,
on or near Trinity Sunday. The exact cost of the
Church and Parsonage,
built simultaneously is not
known. However, in 1856
the Diocesan Report includes …‘Wangaratta, cost
to date’. ,993 pound;
Subscriptions,
707
pound. Grant, 402 pound,
Debt, about 830 pound:
Number of free sittings, about 70; Total
number of sittings, about
120.
I assume this means that
about 50 people paid rent
for their pews!
Unfortunately, many
Vestry books and other
Church records seem to
have been either lost or
destroyed so we know
very little of the history of
the Church in the interesting and stirring days of the
pioneers. From various
sources a few scraps of information have been gathered, but many links are
missing from the chain.
Though the population of the bush town and
district was very small,
the contributions towards
the building fund were
many and liberal. In the
list of donors appeared the
names of the Rev. Joseph
Docker,
Dr.
Mackay,
George Faithful, Reid
Brothers W. Clark, F. Ryley, T. Clark, M. Cusack,
Broadribb,
Macartney,
Shadforth, Ely, Bayliss,
Chisholm, Ford, and other
well known names of the
early settlers.
A large block of about
seven acres in the centre
of the town was purchased.
In part, given by Mr.
W. H. Clark. [1810-71].
Four blocks, each 66 feet
long, including the site of
Bishop's Lodge and many
of the houses in the Cathedral Close, and two
other blocks. Through Dr.
George Mackay [181167], C.H. Hughes [an Uncle of Canon E.S. Hughes]
also gave three allotments
covering almost 2 acres,
including the present gardens of Bishop’s Lodge
and the site of the former
Trinity Hostel.
Dr. Dobbyn, for many
years Surgeon at the
Beechworth
Hospital,
acted as Treasurer, and
Mr. F. G. Docker carried
out the duties of Secretary.
The Architect was Mr. J.
Dobbyn; and though the
monument he left behind
him does not possess great
architectural beauty, perhaps owing in measure to
the original design not being completed, it has been
hallowed by the memories
of nearly sixty years.
The contractor for the
building was George Elwood, and Messers. S.
Ashworth and J. Ellis carried out the carpentry
work.
This district was then
part of the huge Diocese
of Melbourne. [The state
of Victoria] Bishop Charles
Perry, was a man of tireless energy and keen intellect, and it is possible that
he performed the opening
ceremony.
From an old Register
it will be seen that the first
Baptism in the Church, on
the 1st. June 1856, is that of
Agnes Elizabeth Vincent,
who became the mother of
the Reverend Mr. Cecil.
The second Incumbent
was the Revd. Anderson J.
McCausland. [1856-59] He
was followed by the Revd.
Caleb Booth, [1859-69]
who had charge of the Parish. Archdeacon Joseph K.
Tucker was appointed in
1869. [1869-77] His Archdeaconry included part of
Gippsland, and in the parish under his immediate
control were Wangaratta,
North Wangaratta, Eldorado, Tarrawingee, Milawa,
Whorouly and Moyhu. To
assist in his work he had
the services of curates at
different periods, among
them being the, Revd. W.
Ford, the Revd. George
F. Cross [whose wife is
the well-known authoress
‘Ada Cambridge’],
the
Revd. E. Rodda, and a future Bishop of Ballarat, the
Revd. Arthur Green. [In
fact it was as the Bishop
of Ballarat that he laid the
Foundation stone, to the
Cathedral, in 1908.]

Reflections
BY FR PETER MACLEOD-MILLER
Forty days and forty nights
Thou wast fasting in the wild;
Forty days and forty nights
Tempted, and yet undefiled.
So shall we have peace divine:
Holier gladness ours shall be;
Round us, too, shall angels shine,
Such as ministered to Thee.
Keep, O keep us, Savior dear,
Ever constant by Thy side;
That with Thee we may appear
At the eternal Eastertide
“Lent” coming from an Anglo Saxon
word for “spring” is a time of renewal
and spiritual exercise akin to a spiritual gym programme, our lent lectures
of Sundays and Tuesday are intended
to stretch and challenge. The inner
revolution is matched by continuing
changes in the St Matthews garden,
pastoral care, music ministry, youth
and outreach providing more opportunities for engagement and ministry
to the people of Albury.
Big love big changes!
Shrove Tuesday pancakes in St Matthews’s garden at 6pm joining with
St Davids Uniting congregation with
Gold coin donation
Ash Wednesday – 5th March, with
services at 10.30am and 6.00pm.
The Sundays of lent at 9am will
look at practical applications locally
and globally of “Love without borders” and the first Sunday of lent
St Matthews welcomes the Wiradjuri
Council of Elders.
Lent: love without Borders
I am pleased to say that lent is an
opportunity to make big changes for
the better and grateful to St David’s
Uniting church and Rev'd Christine
Moimoi and her congregation for a
growing partnership in ministry.
We all remember the bad old
days when different denominations
hid from each other behind different
prayer books and in different buildings and all suspecting each others
buildings to fall down if we entered.
I have been stunned at the way we
have been able to sing from the same
sheet in important areas of homeless
and mental health and recently over
women’s health and privacy making a
very effective contribution to a community conversation.
“Film and Food for thought”.
This lent will share Tuesday nights
“lite Lenten bite” at 6pm (fishcake
or quiche and salad with gluten free
options) followed by a classic film on
a Christian theme at 6.30 pm in the
Ballroom at Adamshurst and a short
sheet to get some Lenten thinking
started.
Bringing the Harvest Home
The last Sunday before Lent sees a
something more than a traditional
harvest festival with a happy marriage of tradition and children’s family service that combines choral high
mass with children’s action songs.
The corporate making of a harvest
loaf, and animals during the service,
Chickens were perched on hay bales
next to the pulpit “thankfulness”
theme bringing up food to the altar
and distributed to needy individuals
and families through “St Matthews
Anglicare food room”.
What a great way to begin Holy
week “Stainers Crucifixion” – 12th
April, Saturday night before Palm
Sunday with special soloists and a
“come and sing congregation”.
Pews, incense and Pastoral care,
God deals with us as whole people,
and sometimes we have real bodily concerns that effect our life together, thanks to all those who take
the time to mention ways on which
we can care in practical ways .we are
responding by trialling padded additions to our pews for greater comfort, please try one out and let us
know what you think,
Incense causes a problem for
some so once a month, on the 3rd
Sunday we are a “smoke free zone”
there are also other concerns that
might be raised and we will do our
best to respond in a way that helps
all of us.
Another monster car boot and
garage sale – 8th March to help us
help the homeless, starting at 8am to
12noon.
Upcoming Concerts and music –
22nd March is the Invenio Singers,
and 29th March there will be a Gospel Choirs concert.
Get it together –fellowship opportunities, men’s breakfast - 1st
March (St Marks), 5th April (St Matthews).
Lent donations for 2014 will be to
the wellness centre for local cancer
relief and youth opportunity, there
might be an opportunity during
morning teas to give a small donation, there is a little band of people
producing Sunday morning scones,
you might like to donate SR flour
or sugar, jam or anything else. You
might even like to help at the Rectory
before church 8am, give Essie a call
and she will give you clear directions.

Stainer’s “The Crucifixion”
by the 'Peoples Choir'
What's happening over the next
few months in
Singers required for Albury & Wangaratta show
BY John Scott
In April a ‘people’s choir’ and soloists will present a performance of
Sir John Stainer’s “The Crucifixion” in both St Matthew’s Church
Albury and Holy Trinity Cathedral
Wangaratta.
Just over two years ago a ‘people’s choir’ plus soloists presented
Handel’s “Messiah” at St Matthew’s
and it was a huge success with nearly 400 people cramming every available sitting and standing position.
A ‘people’s choir’ gives anyone
who enjoys singing the opportunity
to be part of a large choir which can
present the chorus of a major work
with minimum rehearsal time.
“The Crucifixion” chorus is
hoping to draw singers from southern New South Wales and north
east Victoria. Soloists will be Gregory Brown (tenor) from Opera
Australia who sang in “The Messiah”, Malcolm Halford (bass) who is
the Organist and Director of Music
at Holy Trinity Cathedral, Heather
Moen-Boyd (organist) well known
Sydney recitalist who played for
“The Messiah”, and Margaret Phillips (conductor) from Beechworth,
well known as a conductor and
singer.
“The Crucifixion” is described by Sir John Stainer as a
“Meditation on the Passion of
the Holy Redeemer”. Stainer, an
organist at St Paul’s Cathedral
London and an Oxford Professor
of Music composed this music to
accompany a setting of text selected from the New Testament
by Rev. J. Sparrow-Simpson. The
work is interspersed with five
hymns in which the congregation
is invited to join. It commences
with a recitative “And they came
to a place named Gethsemane”
and finishes with “And He bowed
His head, and gave up the ghost.”
The performances will be
at St Matthew’s Church Albury
on Saturday 12 April at 7.30pm,
and at Holy Trinity Cathedral on
Palm Sunday, 13 April at 2.30pm.
Tickets are available at the door
of each venue and are $20.00 with
18 years and under free.
Interested singers should
contact John Scott by email [email protected] or phone
0412 828 923 to register their
interest and obtain an Information Sheet which will give details
about rehearsals, music etc.

Introduce Us
national MU presidents prattle
BY Reverend Libbie Crossman
W
elcome to a
new triennium
for MU Australia and welcome to all
who are new recipients
of “President’s Prattle”,
my monthly (or almost
monthly newsletter) to
members of MU Australia
Council which comprises
the MU Australian Executive and all Diocesan
Presidents. MU’s worldwide spread is one of
the reasons I joined, we
look outside our own parish boundaries and can
learn, if we want to, the
nature of being part of a
family of Christians who
will gather us into the fold
wherever we happen to
be.
Urgent Prayer for South
Sudan and at home
As we all pray for
communities in our own
land affected at this
time by bushfires and
excessively high temperatures we have also
been asked to pray in
particular for the people
of South Sudan many of
whom have family members in Australia, some
who are MU members. I
include just a portion of
the letter received from
Mary Sumner House:
Catherine Kyte, Faith
Support Officer for Mothers’ Union has drawn
together some prayer
points to lead your
prayers.
Pray for....
•An end to the in-
tense fighting which has
overtaken large regions of
South Sudan and the pursuit of peaceful means to
resolve problems
• Mothers’ Union involvement in Emergency
Crisis Committee
• The challenges facing the tens of thousands
trying to leave the country
particularly those sheltering out in the open with
little security and scant
supplies
• Neighbouring countries to cope with the new
influx of refugees
• A way to be found to
provide medical supplies
and help to the vulnerable
• The provision of food
and clean water; sanitation
• Mothers’ Union members in affected areas as
they bring support to their
communities
• Sudanese families
in other countries concerned for the welfare of
family and friends caught
up in the conflict
• The short and long
term future of Mothers’
Union Literacy and Financial Education groups
• The protection of resources amassed by Savings Groups
• Long-term dialogue
and reconciliation work to
resolve the complex political and ethnic divisions at
the heart of the conflict
• The work of Mothers’
Union trainers in peace
and reconciliation
Loving Lord, who wept
at the sufferings of Jerusalem, have compassion on
your people in this day.
Send your Spirit of justice and mercy that lives
would be rescued and
peace prevail.
Amen

Rev'd Maryann Leonard
This month we feature an interview with The Reverend Maryann Leonard.
Maryann is married to John and they live in the rectory at Nagambie.
Maryann and John have four children aged 35 down to 18, a son-in-law,
daughter in-law and one 8 year old grand-daughter.
Maryann was born in Wollongong NSW, and enjoyed the idyllic lifestyle that comes by living close
to the beach. A little known fact is that Maryann I was the first female surf lifesaver in the Gong
(Wollongong), and was Sub Junior Champion of NSW in golf. She attended St Stephen’s Anglican
church Port Kembla. Maryann began her working life as a computer punch card operator at BHP
and when she moved to Victoria she worked as a cook at Puckapunyal. While a single mother of
two, she met John at Puckapunyal. Later, she became a head cook at a hotel. After getting married,
Maryann completed her Bachelor of Education Degree (Hons) and teaches full time.
1.
When did you first sense a call to ordained ministry and how was it
revealed to you?
The first realisation of an inkling of a ‘call’ was just on twenty years ago. The need to study the
scriptures and just somehow become more involved not only in church life, but in the wider
community, was my first taste of ministry. It was eighteen years ago that I first began to obey
the ‘call’. There were no lightning flashes or one single revelation. The sense of being willingly
pulled into service, was on reflection, began in my childhood. I then just began to go with the
flow and allowed the Holy Spirit to lead me.
2.
Would you give us a brief outline of your journey to date?
My journey to ordained ministry has not been an easy one at times. Many challenges were
placed before me. But I came to realise that everything is in God’s time not mine. I am currently
about to complete a Graduate Diploma in Theology, then proceed to Master of Divinity online
through UFT and Trinity Melbourne. Therefore, juggling family, working full time, studying and
serving my parish has been a challenge. However I would not have it any other way.
3.
Tell us about your current ministry placement and your major roles in
that placement?
Currently I am the Deacon of the Parish of Central Goulburn, with Fr. David Valentin as my
mentor and counsellor. I must also say at this point it was through the prayerful discernment of
Fr. Norman Hart who encouraged me on this wonderful journey as well. We have three centres Avenel, Nagambie and Seymour. Fr. David is part time. My roles are varied. I conduct Morning
Prayer on weekdays and on Sundays (we alternate services so all three centres have an equal
opportunity for celebrating the Eucharist), deliver sermons, compile intercessions, home visits
and giving communion to the ill and aged. It is also a privilege to conduct services at the three
nursing homes in the area. I am also honoured to conduct funerals and Baptisms and hopefully
soon preside at Holy Matrimony. During the week I am also on call. I am also the Co Ordinator
for the Shire of Mitchell for Victorian Council of Churches Emergency Ministries. It was a’full on’
few days in the latest fires in February. Deploying volunteers and actually being a Chaplain at
the Seymour Relief Centre, has been a humbling experience, where the meeting of those who
have evacuated has had a reciprocal effect on myself as well. I also organise and liaise with
our Parish Partners in the varied ministries in the wider community. The largest of these is the
Seymour Schools Breakfast Program, where we are feeding up to 600 children each week. We
are in the planning stages of working the Bridge Youth Services, to begin a Community Learning
Kitchen. Fr. David and I have a staff meeting each week, where together as a team we discuss
the following week and reflect on what we have done in the week before. The weekly bulletin
is also on my to-do list each week, as well as operating the most techno-photocopier in the
southern hemisphere. It is fraught with being able to keep up with the wireless magic that
seems to just print things from a thought process.
4.
What is the major challenge for you in your ministry?
The most obvious challenge for me is effective use of time! The fact is also I also work
full time teaching at St Mary’s College Seymour is a factor I need to consider. There
appears to be very little welfare available after 5pm weekdays and on weekends. Well,
there needs to be! Watch this space.
5.
What are you most looking forward to now that you are ordained as a
deacon?
To be able to help in the building up the God’s Holy Church through loving and caring
ministry serving in the name of Jesus, proclaiming the faith in both worship and public
office. Being accountable to being an ambassador of Christ, and loving and serving
the Lord by loving and serving the people and working in the community. I am also
looking forward to learning so much more about my vocation and where it may lead
and how best it will equip me to promote, proclaim and deliver the Lord’s compassion
and care. It is also about being able to make decisions, hopefully wise.
6.
What is at the heart of ministry for you?
7.
A final statement or anything you wish to add.
Being of service to the Lord and to people, conveying the message of love and forgiveness. To
be a voice that proclaims loud and clear that the Anglican Church and Christianity is not dead
or even dying. There is profound joy in my heart when I am asked to speak about our faith and
how things work. Being welcoming wherever people come from. Availing yourself to walk with
someone on what ever journey they may be undertaking. To be a sounding board and be able to
help in mediation and reconciliation. Also to be a visible sign of my faith by being a true disciple
of Jesus.
Australian National MU President Reverend Libbie Crossman, Pat Breakwell MU member
from Mitcham, and State MU President, Shirley Steele.
"Sharing Christ's love by encouraging, strengthening,
and supporting marriage and family life."

I would like to thank my family first of all who have travelled with me on my journey
(which I believe has not finished yet). I would also like to thank the Parish of Central
Goulburn who have accepted first as Maryann, and now as Deacon. Their support
and love and graciousness towards my transition to Ordained Ministry, has indeed
been humbling. To Bishop John, Archdeacon John Davis, Fr. Lyall Turley, Archdeacon
Eden-Elizabeth Nicholls and my Spiritual Director and the discernment team. It is with
great humility and love that I offer you my sincere thank you, and have appreciated all
the encouragement, advice and unconditional support and prayers. My ordination to
Deacon on St Andrew’s Day will remain the day I began the rest of my life. The journey
continues........

Movie Review
Review by Fr Kim Benton
12 years a Slave (2013)
This film has just won the Golden
Globe Award for Best Motion
Picture amidst many other award
and tributes and is up for a bevy of
Oscars.
I watched this spellbound - this is a
very, very good movie, revealing and
shocking in the literalism of the precivil war period in the United States.
Slavery of the Afro-Americans has
been featured in other movie epics
such as Mandingo (1975), Amistad
(1997), Django Unchained (2012),
but none of them are as confronting
and raw as this true story.
This film, directed by Steve
McQueen, is stunningly beautiful
with each frame evoking powerful
visceral reactions, supported by
a superb musical score. Hard to
watch, but mesmerising, the story (adapted by John Ridley) is based on the 19thcentury memoir of Solomon Northup, a free educated carpenter and musician from
New York who happens to be black. In 1841, he was kidnapped and sold into
slavery, to become the chattel of a Southern plantation owner. He then gets sold
down the river to a sadistic and vengeful white owner who has no compulsion in
inflicting brutal punishment on his slaves for even the slightest misdemeanour.
This is the story of a man stripped back physically and psychologically to his core so
that he is no more than a beast. For Solomon to survive he must suppress his rage,
feign illiteracy and learn subservience and his place.
A chance encounter with a Canadian abolitionist brings hope but I will not spoil
the movie. Chiwetel Ejiofor as Solomon Northup is magnificent; ably supported by
Michael Fassbender, Brad Pitt, Benedict Cumberbatch, Paul Giamatti, Sarah Paulson.
12 Years a Slave is an important story, gritty and truthful, told with passion,
conviction and grace. One of the must see movies this year. Rated MA in cinemas
now.

John has been enriched in life. He has been blessed by God with a wonderful
family and good health. After full filling his dreams with a successful career he
has now retired and spends his time volunteering within his parish as a church
warden. During his time volunteering he learned that his fellow parishioners
have been generous and supportive of the work of God through the church and
he wanted to follow in their foot steps.
So John went to visit his family lawyer to revise his will and to find a way he
could help support the work of God. His lawyer suggested to him that he could
name his parish as beneficiary in his will. So in addition to providing bequests
for his grandchildren’s education, John decided to provide ten percent of his
estate to his parish church. This way, what he practices every Sunday as a committed parishioner will continue on. John’s generosity will make a significant
difference with in the life and work of his parish.
For more information please contact;
