    Newsletter No. 92 August 2007

    of the Uniting Church in South Australia Editor: Rev. Kevin Secomb NEWSLETTER 4 Severn Street NO. 92 GILBERTON S A 5081 Phone : (08) 8344 8840 AUGUST 2007 CONTENTS Editorial Page 2 A reminder: Half-day Workshop 2 The Reverend Kenneth Batten Leaver, 1914-2007 3 Notice of the Annual Lecture 3 An experiment in church union, by (the late) Rev Geo. W. Shapley 4 Parkin Mission—125th anniversary celebrations and launch of book “Parkin’s Passion” by Brian L. Jones OAM 6 EDITORIAL The Psalm-writer emphasises the fact that our life-span is very short when compared with the eons of time in God’s keeping. While this is irrefutable, to be able to see the events in perspective is also very instructive. A paper prepared by the long-time Methodist Home Mission Director, Rev George Shapley MBE in the 1950s reminds us of united efforts by churches before Church Union in 1977. Remembering the life and work of Rev Ken Leaver, who died earlier this year at the age of 93, also reminds us of much that took place in the same era. Recalling the time when various sports were a major element in church youth work also reminds us how this was an important way to gain the attention of young men and women in the life of local congregations. As very little of this attraction remains today, it challenges us to rethink what we need to be doing in the present. Even the perspectives of a lifetime of three score years and ten (or more) is very important in counteracting the view that the only thing of importance is what happens only in the present.
  • Adelaide Fringe and the Adelaide Festival

    Adelaide Fringe and the Adelaide Festival

    Australian Services Union SA + NT Branch The ASU campaigns for fairness and equality in our workplaces, communities + globally Join the union for social justice activists 08 8363 1322 Foreword Together with our sponsors, the Don Dunstan Foundation is proud to present the 2019 Social Change Guide to the Adelaide Fringe and the Adelaide Festival. This Guide is our biggest yet with 181 shows featuring a diverse display of culture of which Don Dunstan would have been proud. Don was not only Premier of South Australia during the 1970s, but was also a trained actor. A strong supporter of the Arts throughout his lifetime, he was a patron of the Fringe and narrated Carnival of the Animals in the 1974 Festival of Arts. The Dunstan Decade saw South Australia lead the nation in progressive social reforms, and laid the foundation for Adelaide’s transformation into ‘the Festival State’. The Adelaide Festival was at the forefront of this transformation; since its launch in 1960 they have been showcasing diverse shows from all around the world. In 1974 the Fringe released its first Souvenir Programme, beginning its evolution into what is now the largest arts festival in the Southern Hemisphere. Each year, both go from strength to strength. The Arts bring us together, and help to create and celebrate our diversity. When we offer access to art in all its forms, we improve the quality of life for everyone in our community. Through the Arts we have a chance to see the world from a new perspective, and at its best, art can inspire us to take action for a fairer world.

  • Adelaide, South Australia... Now Is the Time! Now Is the Time!

    Adelaide, South Australia... Now Is the Time! Now Is the Time!

    ADELAIDE, SOUTH AUSTRALIA... NOW IS THE TIME! NOW IS THE TIME! Adelaide, South Australia is positioning itself on a global scale for major conventions. The destination is currently undergoing an unprecedented level of infrastructure development and investment, which will further enhance the city’s already renowned ‘ease of use’ functionality and services to the Business Events sector. A vital component is the re-development of Adelaide’s ‘Riverbank Precinct’ - home to Adelaide Convention Centre, Adelaide Oval, Adelaide Festival Centre, Adelaide Casino, InterContinental Adelaide and surrounding plazas. This area is developing as a world-class convention and entertainment precinct creating a lively and connected promenade including a footbridge linking the Adelaide Oval and northern side of the River Torrens. Complementing these developments is a world leading Health and Medical Research Institute, and other key health and medical developments, cementing Adelaide’s reputation as a hub for related conventions. Adelaide Convention Bureau CEO Damien Kitto underlines the importance of this commitment; “As we all know, to be successful in the global convention market, a destination must have the right mix, standard and location of core convention infrastructure. By enhancing and growing the Riverbank precinct Adelaide is not only able to service major conventions of 3000+ delegates, but is also creating unique synergies with institutions that will drive and support convention content. Our city has great ambition and intention in this area.” MERCURE
