“Who Am I?” A Sydney Anglican Female Perspective – Dani Treweek
As I read Julia Baird’s latest offering about the caricatured, oppressed, silenced and invisible women of the Sydney Anglican Diocese (“In praise of the oddities and outliers resisting bonkers fundamentalism in Sydney”, SMH Oct 26th), I found myself having my very own Jean Val Jean moment (though, sadly, without the accompanying symphony).

Ed Loane appointed 12th Warden of St Paul’s College
Moore College gives thanks to God for the appointment of the Rev Dr Edward Loane as Warden of St Paul’s College in the University of Sydney. This is an indication of God’s great kindness to the St Paul’s community and though we are very sad to lose Ed from the full-time faculty at Moore College, we rejoice in God’s wisdom through this appointment. Ed joined the faculty in 2014 and throughout his time with us his godly character, remarkable leadership gifts and clear gospel priorities have been evident to all. The wonderful combination of his vibrant personality and his excellent scholarship in church history and Christian theology have made him a much loved and highly valued member of the College faculty.
‘We are very sad that Ed will no longer be full-time among us, but we are looking forward to partnership with him in this new role. We also hope to continue our association with him, since one of the best things about this appointment is that Ed, Joc and their family will be just over the back fence. We still expect to see him, and them, often around the College’, said Moore College Principal, Dr Mark Thompson.
We commit ourselves to pray for Ed and look forward in anticipation to how God will use him as Warden of St Paul’s.
