Commissioning of Rev Peter

Our new Secondary School Chaplain, Reverend Peter Waterhouse was formally welcomed and commissioned at the Secondary School commencement chapel service.

The Right Reverend Paul Barker, the Bishop of the Jumbunna Episcopate, officiated at the service. Other special guests included Reverend Akhil (Pastor of Redemption Church Craigieburn, Reverend Jonathon (Vicar of St Peter’s, Brighton Beach), Reverend Christine (Chaplain of Firbank Grammar) Reverend Ian (Vicar of St Andrew’s Brighton), and Reverend Peter’s very proud parents John and Jan Waterhouse.

With the theme of humility, the service featured the presentation of symbols by fellow staff members. They included a bible, a stole, a woollen tie, BGS sports cap, a ukulele and a compass.

 

Congratulations Reverend Peter, and welcome to the BGS community.
