In 1984, Melbourne Bishop James Grant ordained Kay Goldsworthy a deaconess. It was a time when, despite more than a decade of intense struggle in the Australian Anglican Church for women to be allowed to take Holy Orders, it was by no means certain that that would ever hap- pen. So Kay, who had first felt the call to priestly ordination as a young girl in the parish of Mooroolbark - a vocation encouraged strongly by her vicar, Gerald Beaumont, later a bishop - accepted the only role then available. She was, as it turned out, one of Melbourne’s last deaconesses. Just a year later the General Synod passed legislation to allow women to be- come deacons, the first rung on the ‘ladder’ of Holy Orders. The first or- dination of women deacons in Australia happened in Melbourne in Feb- ruary the following year, and Goldsworthy was among the women or- dained in that historic service. So it was fitting that both Bishop Grant and Bishop Beaumont were in Perth on Saturday to see Bishop Goldsworthy become the first woman in the Anglican world to become an archbishop. And Melbourne’s Arch- bishop Philip Freier, as Primate, was there to bless her and, on behalf of the Australian bishops, to recognise her officially as Archbishop of Perth. A former Archbishop of Perth, Peter Carnley, was also in St George’s Cathedral on Saturday 10 February. It was he who broke the roadblock preventing women becoming priests when he led Perth Diocese to take the decisive step of ordaining Australia’s first women priests in advance of General Synod legislation after years of stalemate. Archbishop Goldsworthy, who had moved to Perth to become a school chaplain in 1988, was among the first women ordained priest in Australia in St George’s Cathedral March 1992. In May 2008, again in St George’s Cathedral, she became Australia’s first woman bishop, and served as an assistant bishop in Perth until becoming Bishop of Gippsland in 2015. To add to the succession of historic ‘firsts’ on Saturday, Archbishop Goldsworthy was installed by another woman bishop, the diocesan administrator, Kate Wilmot. Yet another woman, Kerry Sanderson, the Governor of Western Australia, welcomed her on behalf of the wider community. In her sermon, Archbishop Goldsworthy noted, in an oblique reference to the child sexual abuse crisis, that “right now, the church’s trust bank is pretty depleted”. She continued: “The hurt and grief which has been brought to light has wrapped around us, and we find ourselves in totally unchartered territory.” The church, she said, was no longer at the centre of city and community but “on its edges”. “How we look to the future together as church matters. Both for the close -up of our here and now, and as we faithfully give ourselves to proclaim- ing day by day, in words and actions, the centre of God’s great purpose of love.” We had to commit to the task “not as an organisation in which we feel labelled as untrustworthy” or as an institution which is “tired and useless”, but as “people of faith, living from the deep spiritual well- spring of that place of homecoming in which each and every communi- ty, each and every person knows themselves fully part of the Body of Christ.” Today, Fr James will be officiating at the wedding of Timothy John Brandy and Heidi Rose Cheung. We pray God’s blessing upon them as they begin their lives together. Today, we welcome into the family of God, the Church, through the sacrament of Holy Baptism Declan Kenneth Hogan. Please pray for Declan, his parents and his godparents that they may know God’s presence in their lives and be enfolded with God’s love. We have a number of new kneelers ready to take their place in the church. Thank you to those people who have continued to donate them and to those who tirelessly keep on making them. We are approaching 180 kneelers and our target is 250 so we are making great headway. Today we return the first ABM Lenten Envelop we received last Sunday – thank you. Today we will receive our 2nd ABM Lenten Envelop for next Sunday – please read the Interesting information on the front to discover more of the work of ABM. The season of Lent is an opportunity to give to the ministry that ABM do on our behalf – Please pray for the ABM team as they Work for Love, Hope and Justice. If you wish to share, as part of your Lenten discipline return your Lenten envelope the offertory each Sunday. We extend our prayerful good wishes to Barry and Joy Brandy on the oc- casion of their 45th wedding anniversary on Saturday the 24th of Febru- ary. We thank God for Barry and Joy – for their love for God and for each and for their family and for their friends. We pray for God’s richest blessing to be upon Barry and Joy as they con- tinue to be an example to us all of devoted love and self-giving love for the benefit of the other. Barry and Joy, may God bless you and keep you. Play Group has now started for 2018. Angela and Jude were in early set- ting up for a busy morning. Each Monday morning they are accompa- nied by Manjia who's music creates a wonderful and welcoming back- ground for the myriad of activities the children, their parents and grand- parents experience. Our thanks to these loyal three people who come each week to help in this ministry. Thank you to Judith and Rosemary for beginning the process of sorting our Liturgical linen and hangings, etc.. Thank you to the parishioner who gave the two beautiful new embroided palls to the parish. Thank you to the Mater Chorale who, under the direction of Fr Michael sang Evensong for us last Sunday afternoon. The beautiful music delighted the congregation who enjoyed the choral worship. Thank you to our electricians for repairing the lights in the car park and connecting electricity to our new pantry. The drive will be safer at night and the pantry can have light, refrigeration and cooling. THE NEW PARISH PANTRY After long expectations the New Parish Pantry opened on Tuesday morning with the able assistance of Kerin Brown. Over the last few weeks we have had shelves assembled and installed, electricity has been connected so that we can run a small refrigerator and an air conditioner.

  • Archbishop of Perth Installation MEDIA RELEASE
    MEDIA RELEASE 10 February 2018 ANGLICANS WELCOME NEW ARCHBISHOP KAY GOLDSWORTHY AO The Right Reverend Goldsworthy AO, is today (Saturday 10 February) being installed as the eighth Archbishop of Perth, and Metropolitan of the Province of Western Australia, signaling a historic moment for the Anglican Church as the first woman in Australia and the worldwide Anglican Communion, elected to the role. Archbishop Goldsworthy’s installation service at St George’s Cathedral followed an extensive eight- month selection process that was announced in August last year. Anglican Primate, Archbishop Philip Freier has warmly welcomed the new Archbishop to the role. “Bishop Kay Goldsworthy continues her pioneering series of appointments as the first woman to be appointed an Archbishop in the Anglican Communion,” Archbishop Freier said. “She will bring her distinct gifts to bear upon this important role and goes to it with my support and encouragement.” The Right Reverend Kate Wilmot, from the Anglican Diocese of Perth, said the installation is an exciting moment for the church. “The installation of a new Archbishop is always a memorable and historic occasion, but we are also conscious that this is the first time an Australian Archbishop has been a woman. “Bishop Kay Goldsworthy knows Perth well but has also had experience in other Australian dioceses, has ministered for more than three decades in three dioceses and brings wisdom and an ability to communicate and collaborate with diverse members of the church community. “Bishop Kay has a long history of service to this diocese, and is an experienced church leader, having spent a decade in episcopal ministry.
