The Diocese of Wangaratta is now blessed with a full house of clergy to offer priestly leadership and spiritual support across the Diocese. As all of our parishes are laid out on a map in front of us we see the vast area that our Diocese covers with their separate towns and regions. Yet we also see an obvious bond that extends beyond our churches and into the communities. We come together as one church to celebrate God’s love, to seek opportunities to work together as God’s people. This strength of our Diocese and our collegiality will enable us to more effectively extend the kingdom of God through our Parishes and into the wider Community.

Dear Brothers and Sisters

‘Tis spring, and an old bishop’s fancy lightly turns to thoughts of fly fishing – the trout, the whole trout and nothing but the trout.

Since my youth I have been fascinated by the art of fishing with artificial fly. Tying up a bit of cotton, a few fibres of fur and feather, a spot of glitter to imitate an item of food which the wily trout just cannot bring itself to refuse. Placing it on or in the water so that its movement is irresistible.

They do say that the secret to fishing is patience. I think that is not right. The secret to fishing is persistence – which is a very different characteristic. Sticking at it. Trying and trying again. Changing method if PHOTO ABOVE: Diana Cherry with Georgina who insisted to Diana and Ed that they have the cross for their one method doesn’t work.

The idea of these Trustees arose as MU of Nuclear Weapons. ICAN was awarded the looked to make Mothers’ Union a truly worldwide movement. Their role is to communicate with Mary Sumner House staff and provide support for provincial Presidents. One area the Trustees will consider is the financial help Provincial Presidents can contribute to Mary Sumner House. The financial department in London has reported that Australian MU members can be proud of their contributions from fundraising activities to be used for Overseas and Special Projects. Some developing countries are still experiencing problems sending their money. Myanmar is unable to send money out of the country so their contributions are deducted from the grants they receive.

During her trip to England for the first Worldwide MU conference in March 2016, Rev’d Libbie Crossman attended the service at Winchester Cathedral, where more than 2000 people were celebrating the beginning of Mothers’. The General Meeting next day was attended by 1600 members when they considered where Mothers’ Union wanted to be by the 150th birthday. One discussion card circulated at that meeting stated” Mothers’ Union is now a thriving, diverse multi-generational movement of socially conscious Christians with a growing membership and a strong network of friends. Mothers’ Union is a highly valued partner of the Anglican Church.”

Mothers’ Union has long been spreading around the world. According to “A Brief History of Mothers’ Union” the first Diocesan Conference was held in Winchester 1887. During that year Mothers’ Union began in The Diocese of Wangaratta Christchurch, New Zealand. In 1889 branches were started in India and Canada. By 1892 there had been further advances in overseas workers extending into China and Adelaide and by 1897 there were thirty-five Lay Ministry branches in Adelaide. In 1898 Mothers’ Union was introduced to the West Invigoration Seminar Indies with a branch formed in Jamaica.” Mrs Lyn Tembey is finishing her term as the Worldwide President of Mothers’ Union and the nomination for new WW President for 2019- Bishop’s authorisation for Ministry 21 has commenced. There are 590 members holding leadership roles to be held at in 83 countries who, as part of the Mothers’ Union, have until the end of September to cast their votes. The three nominees are currently Worldwide Trustees. Barbara Taylor is Provincial President of York Province, Holy Trinity Cathedral, Jocelyn Wright is from Canterbury Province and also Unit co-ordinator of Fundraising and Communications. Sheran Harper is from Guyana in Wangaratta the West Indies where Mothers’ Union has been active for nearly as long on as in England. As the trustee for Zone B she represents the members from Brazil, Canada, South America, USA and West Indies. Each Trustee is responsible for four or five MU Provinces.

Sunday 23rd September, Bishop John officiated at a Confirmation service when seven candidates confirmed their faith to a packed congregation and received the laying on of hands by Bishop John at St Margaret’s church, Cobram.

Bishop John’s clear message in his address was to confirm the message that the greatest powerful aspect of our humanness is the giving of ourselves in love for others. He encouraged the confirmees and all those listening that we should display our Christian love in our lives in fellowship with all others.

The candidates are pictured below with Bishop John following the PHOTO ABOVE: Patty DuPlooy with the Garden of Creation at Christ Church service.

ABM has launched an emergency appeal in response to a request for assistance from the Episcopal Church in the Philippines (ECP), after Super Typhoon Mangkhut struck the northern parts of Luzon on Saturday 15 September, 2018.

The ECP has a substantial presence in the region, with four out of the seven dioceses spread across the affected area. This includes 300 parishes and 100 other communities that the Church has engagement with, all of which have been damaged in varying degrees by the typhoon.

Much of the area is rural with rice and corn crops almost ready to be harvested, but now destroyed, leaving thousands of people without livelihoods and homes. A rice shortage already experienced prior to the typhoon is now expected to severely affect many more people in the weeks to come.

More than 60 people have died, mostly caused by landslides in or near the Cordillera mountain region, with the number expected to rise.

The Rev John Deane, ABM’s Executive Director, said that it is not often that a partner will request for assistance so immediately, therefore they were expecting and preparing for the worse.

Attorney Floyd Lalwet, ECP’s National Development Officer, sent ABM a report on the situation on Sunday, 16th September:

“All over Northern Luzon, communities have been severely damaged by the typhoon. Houses and other structures were destroyed and our communities are now doing communal actions to repair and/or rebuild the habitations. Farmlands have borne the brunt of the strong wind and rains and crops that are due for harvest at the last quarter are almost completely wiped out.”

Sadly four members of a family who attended St Timothy’s Church in Bontoc, Mountain ACROSS LAST MONTHS SOLUTION Province, were killed in a landslide. Two children survived and are being treated in Issue No. 0302 hospital. The ECP has asked for prayers for the children’s recovery and for their family 1. Chinese river members who were lost. 4.
