Bronwyn HALFPENNY (Thomastown) (09:58): The electorate of Thomastown welcomes the newly formed St George Indian Orthodox Church, Epping. I had the great pleasure of attending the inaugural church service and first Holy Qurbana. The Assistant Metropolitan of the Diocese of Asia Pacific His Grace Dr Yuhanon Mar Diascoros was chief celebrant of the holy mass, and blessings were received from His Holiness Moran Mar Baselios Marthoma Mathews III. Mass was also conducted by parish priest Father Jibin Sabu. I look forward to working with the church, parishioners and Father Sabu, who makes such an important contribution to our area and provides essential supports, connection, spiritual guidance and fellowship.
