Rural Chaplains Gather at Parkes


On Monday and Tuesday of this week the Chaplains and others engaged in rural ministry, gathered in Parkes to share our stories and to be informed by the program organised for the two days.
There were representatives from the Salvation Army, The Presbyterian Church, the Catholic Church, the Baptist Church and the Uniting Church.

This time it was the Salvos turn to organise and present the program. Major Robert Strong put together a great program of devotional and educational sessions of which the highlight was Colonel Don Woodland speaking of his experiences and understanding of being an emergency response chaplain.

Thanks once again to all those who travelled a long way to be a part of the gathering.
