NEW DIOCESAN WEBMASTER
A new webmaster for the diocesan site will be required by the end of the summer and a volunteer is now being sought.
It is not expected that the website continues in its present form, or that it be updated daily. A fresh start is envisaged.
Software and training will be provided, though some computer literacy is expected. Both clergy and lay are invited to apply.
Applications and enquiries to the Diocesan Office.

WOMEN’S RETREAT: SEEKING GOD IN CREATION
As part of the human race, we are challenged to find and celebrate our place within the created order. As Christians, we recognise that all of creation is a gift from God, brought into being by God’s desire to demonstrate and celebrate a profound love. God never intended for us to take over the planet to destroy it, but rather that we might care for all of creation the way a mother cares for a child.
This year’s women’s retreat will focus on recognising God’s presence in the world and how we, as women, can better answer God’s call through our dedication to the planet. We will journey through three sessions: God Called THIS Good?! (a look at ugliness and redemption); Creation Is Groaning – Are We Listening? (an invitation to hear the earth’s pains); and Big Creation, Little Me (engaging our little actions to make a big difference).
All of the sessions will be based on scriptural references, and offer practical discussions for prayer and action. We will spend time celebrating nature in one of the most beautiful settings within the area. Our intention is not to return home feeling disconnected from our society, but rather feeling empowered to
incorporate more ‘green’ practices into our lives, recognising them as one way in which we respond to God’s call.
We will gather June 3-5 at the Diocesan Memorial Camp. Cost is $70 and space is limited! Contact the Synod office for more information (727-7550).
