That day in the year that is marked on all Salvo Officer's calendars has come and gone and 'Salvo Santa' left a couple of parcels under our tree. On opening our parcels we found the confirmation that come January 8, 2009 we are on the move back to Australia.
Our new home will be in Preston, Victoria (just outside the city of Melbourne) where Sandy and I will be responsible for The Salvation Army Preston Corps (church). As well as heading up the leadership team at this suburban church Sandy will be joining the staff team at The Salvation Army's Officer Training College as a Lecturer, and I will be developing a new role as an Overseas Development Consultant.
But that's all in January of next year - until then we continue at the most exciting Corps in New Zeland, The Meeting House - Mt Albert.
