Morialta Uniting Church in Adelaide was looking for a new pastor. Ahead of several other applicants, they called Rev Steve Thompson who is gay and living with his partner Lachlan. The vote to ask him to be their pastor was 95% in favour. One member even said, "We don't really care about the colour of his eyes".

He and Lachlan have now moved into the manse, and Steve has commenced his ministry there.

This has been a great encouragement to many and I hope it is to you too.

In Him

Great news of encouragement! I wander what colour eyes the new pastor has?

Thanks for sharing this, David. Very positive indeed.
