George Milford produced a home made kaleidoscope to recall memories of people and events at the final service at the Newstead Uniting Church last Sunday.
George held everyone’s attention as he used his scope to recall anecdotes and stories of the congregation’s life in the community since since the first services were conducted under a tree in the mid 19th century.
The ‘spring cleaned’ church was filled as the Rev Sarah Tomilson conducted a service that included an acknowledgement of country, prayers of thanksgiving. See the Mail for more…
