“Dear Friends,
I am very pleased to announce that the Rev’d Peter Blundell has accepted my offer to become the Rector of the Parish of Swan Hill. Peter and his wife Jeanette will be moving into Swan Hill early in August and I look forward to inducting Peter into this ministry on Friday 10th August.
Originally from Melbourne, Peter and Jeanette have ministered in a variety of settings and come to Swan Hill with a wealth of experience. I have known them both for almost a decade and love their focus on Jesus, their desire to see all the people of God take part in ministry and their willingness to serve rural, regional and remote Australia. They will both be a great addition to our Diocesan family.
I want to thank the Rev’d Denis Gell for his selfless and dedicated ministry as locum during the interregnum. I have been impressed at Denis’ care for you and his wise work. I know that Peter and Denis look forward to working together.
Your servant in Christ,
+Matt”
