The Parish of East Maitland were delighted to welcome Bishop Peter Stuart to preside, administer the sacraments and bring his teaching at their Patronal Festival on Sunday 25th June.

Bishop Peter baptised and confirmed catechumens, welcomed newcomers into communicant membership of the Anglican Church of Australia, and awarded Royal School of Church Music medals to members of our Junior Choir.

Congratulations to those who were Baptised, Confirmed and Received.

Bishop Peter’s Homily from the Patronal Festival is available online to listen to on the parish website here.
