Warruwi Church Centenary

In June 2016, the community at Warruwi will hold a one-week celebration in recognition of the arrival of Rev. James Watson in 1916. Rev. Watson arrived at Warruwi (South Goulburn Island) to establish a Christian mission to the Aboriginal people, under the auspices of Methodist Overseas Missions. 

The community is planning a week of witness and fellowship activities. There will be a special day of thanksgiving and remembering at Warruwi on Wednesday 22 June 2016. To register your interest in attending this event, please contact Judy Orme, email: ormes2@bigpond.com or mobile: 0407 828 495.
