We had the pleasure of gathering on May 19th to celebrate the work of some of our longest serving ministers. Rev Brace Bateman, Rev Robin Townsend and Rev Dr Denham Grierson and were able to attend in person to receive certificates recognising their 60, 50 and 60 years of ordination respectively. Celebrating their ordination milestones from home were Rev Dr Warren Bartlett, 60 years, Rev Leon Clarnette, 65 years, Rev John Donnell, 60 years, Rev Bevin fist, 60 years, Rev William Pugh, 65 years, and Rev Richard Wootton, 60 years. A reflection on this special service will feature in our June 2024 issue of Newsbeat.
On Sunday 2nd June we will gather together again for a special service at Glen Waverley Uniting Church to celebrate the work of Bill Morgan, who has achieved an incredible 80 years of ordination. Details are available here.
