Bishop Graeme reflected on his recent experiences since accepting the role of Acting Diocesan Bishop, including a confirmation, a parish lunch, licensing a school chaplain, and induction ceremonies.   He expressed gratitude to Gary Peverley, Diocesan Secretary for his exemplary leadership during challenging times, and commended the work of the Crown Nominations Commission and the Diocesan Representatives and encouraged all to hold them in their prayers as they carry out the task committed to them.

Graeme concluded with a heartfelt thank you and highlighted the importance of celebrating local successes, and in particular he encouraged everyone to think about the good news stories they want to share with the new bishop when they arrive.
