Month: August 2023

We were privileged to share dinner with Kris Paul a student at the School of Theology at the University of the South, Sewanee ,Tennessee while she was visiting Sydney. We wish Kris the very best in her studies and her upcoming ordination into the Episcopal Church.

A beautiful life of kindly deeds

A helping hand to those in need

Always loving, unselfish and kind

A wonderful memory you leave behind

Love always

We gathered on the 2nd July 2023 to participate in the blessing of our new church Cross. Archdeacon Karipa was surrounded by his Bible Discussion Group as we prayed together, acknowledging Christ’s suffering and rising again.
