On Saturday February 3rd the Saltbush team met in Dubbo for the induction of Reverend Natasha He. Many families, friends and members of Cecil Gribble Tongan Congregation Uniting Church, Dee Why made the journey to support Natasha, bringing a distinctly Tongan vibrancy through song, food and fellowship. Members of Macquarie Darling Presbytery and Synod were also present with Moderator Reverend Mata bringing the message. We are so grateful for Dubbo UCA and Reverend Mel’s welcome and hospitality. Natasha’s gifts are many as is her passion for pastoral care and the message of love and hope found in Christ. We pray God’s blessing on Natasha, Masiu and their three children Tupou-Grace, Timotheos and Ma’ata Telesia.
As a team we look forward to the coming year and the different ways we can walk alongside the scattered communities in rural, regional and coastal NSW and ACT, sharing life and faith together.
