Charleville or bust — Waterloo Wanderers travel 900km to see an old friend

“Being sincerely loved and missed by many, 14 parishioners from Anglican Parish of Waterloo Bay — nicknamed “The Waterloo Wanderers” — headed to Charleville to catch up with their dear friend, The Rev’d Jim, in his new environment. We travelled more than 900km in cars and vans over two days, staying overnight in caravan parks and cabins along the way,” says Margaret Carr from The Parish of Waterloo Bay

Defence Sunday 2024 message from Archbishop Jeremy Greaves

Each year on Defence Sunday, we remember the work of our defence chaplains who, like my Uncle Bill stand on the frontlines of emotional and spiritual care…This year Defence Sunday falls on the 10th of November and I encourage you to think about how you might thank members of the Defence Force chaplaincy for their work,” says Archbishop Jeremy Greaves
