  • Partners Praying Together
    Partners Praying Together EACH DAY THIS MONTH ABM Prayer Theme: Give thanks for the work and witness of Nungalinya College in Darwin. Many of the students who come to Nungalinya are already church leaders, and across a year, people attend from over 100 different communities. In 2019, it was wonderful to see pastors from the Kimberley region in Western Australia make their way to the College for the first time and for a new cohort of Diploma of Translating students to begin their journey. Nungalinya continues to offer holistic care and training and invites you to continue to partner with them in 2020. Saturday 1 February ABM Prayer for the Day: ABM Prayer for the Day: Give thanks for the work ABM has been engaged in to support the Anglican Church of Melanesia (ACOM) in the Solomon Islands. With your help, we’ve supported the church to develop their strategic planning, train Mothers’ Union members in counselling skills, improve financial management and help ACOM members get community development training. With the Diocese of Brisbane, we’ve supported an ACOM development staff member to travel to a climate reality workshop in Brisbane, and funded the engagement of a consultant to review ACOM’s child protection policy. Each of these activities has been in response to the Church’s request. Australian Cycle of Prayer (ACP): The Anglican Church of Australia; the Primate – Archbishop Philip Freier; the General Secretary – Anne Hywood; the General Synod and the Standing Committee Sunday 2 February – The Presentation of Christ in the Temple ABM Prayer for the Day: Give thanks for ABM’s Reconciliation Program and those who support it.

  • Melbourne Synod Set to Proceed, but General Synod Deferred Again
    Child labour the dark side of Easter eggs page 15 Graeme Garrett on The Melbourne Anglican Richard Flanagan’s latest novel TMA page 23 March 2021, No 600 TThe MAMelbourne Anglican TMA marks milestone as Church and world wrestle with COVID’s legacy The 600th issue of the paper you are reading was born in a very different time, in 1994, when Australia was emerging from a recession and the Church from the debates over the ordination of women (the first female priests had been ordained two years earlier). Angela Grutzner, who had served Archbishops David Penman and Keith Rayner as media director and editor of TMA’s predecessor See, was midwife at the birth of The Melbourne Anglican that year. In 1995, Roland Ashby succeeded Angela and in the following 23 and a half years expanded the paper to include more features and supplements, and later included a range of digital offerings. From 2018 until late last year, Emma Halgren put her own stamp on the paper, and further adapted it to the digital era. Just as well as COVID struck and left everyone wondering what its implications would be for church and world. Mark Brolly, Interim Editor TMA See pages 10 and 11 Melbourne Synod set to proceed, but General Synod deferred again by Stephen Cauchi and had been rescheduled for Friday 16 While nothing was finalised, “at The Primate, Archbishop considered appropriate for the Mark Brolly April at 7pm. the moment, we are planning for Geoffrey Smith of Adelaide, conduct of an ordinary session of Dr Freier said the purpose of an ordinary session of Synod in announced the deferral of General the General Synod and the nature special session of the special session was to give October 2021”, Mr Tadgell said.
