Commissioning of a Lay Preacher: Colin Thomson

Colin Thomson was commissioned as a Lay Preacher in the Uniting Church in a worship service at Wangaratta on December 16th, 2012.  

Colin commenced training in early 2009.  He completed Lay Preacher Studies and six supervised worship services.  Following his commissioning, he said that he appreciated all the support received during this time.  His mentor and family members travelled from Melbourne to be there and members of the Presbytery of North East Victoria were also present.

Grief And Loss Group

We experience loss in many ways:  through the death of a loved one, personal injury or illness, loss of a pet, moving house or any major change.

Grief is inescapable when we suffer loss.  Someone said, "we learn to live as we learn to grieve. Through grief we learn our limits and we learn that we are sustained by God's grace".  Sometimes grief partners are able to walk and talk with us and to simply be there and this can help.

Grief and loss sessions are offered as needed at the Wangaratta Uniting Church, Rowan Street.  For more information contact one of the Ministry Team.
