A South Sudanese choir burst into
impromptu song as newly installed Anglican Bishop of Canberra/Goulburn
Dr Mark Short emerged from Saint Saviour's Cathedral on Saturday.
The
choir, representing the South Sudanese Anglican Ministry, had travelled
especially from Ginninderra, ACT for the historic occasion. Members of
Wagga Wagga's Sudanese community also made a special trip, honouring
their former Archdeacon.
In
what was thought to be a first, an Aboriginal leader, Bush Church Aid
Society indigenous ministry officer The Reverend Neville Naden preached
at an Anglican Bishop's consecration.
The service, preceded by the sounding of Saint Saviour's bells across Goulburn, united all colours, creeds and abilities.
