I congratulate St Mark's Anglican Church in Sadleir on its long-awaited reclassification as a full parish. St Mark's in Sadleir opened in 1963 to meet the needs of residents moving into the Green Valley housing estate as it rapidly took shape. Since then, the church has been a source of comfort and support for many people to express their faith and seek spiritual counsel. The longest serving parishioner and Synod representative, Norma Ester, reflects that the area has evolved significantly since St Mark's was originally opened as a church plant from St Luke's in Liverpool. It has now taken on a much more multicultural flavour, but St Mark's continues to be a source of faith and heart for many in the local area. St Mark's has now finally achieved a status reflecting its local impact. I congratulate the entire faith community of St Mark's, with special mention of Reverend David Morgan. He has a genuine commitment to faith and community service and has brought so many groups together. I share his hope and prayers that the church will continue to be sustained for years to come.
