DEACON ORDAINED
SERVICE AT TE AWAMUTU (Special to Times.) TE AWAMUTU, Monday At St. John’s Church yesterday morning, Mr Matthew Lewis Calder, Th.L., was ordained a deacon in the ministry of the Church of England by the Bishop of Waikato, the Rt. Rev. C. A. Cherrington, 8.A., D.D. There was a large congregation. The candidate’s father, the Rev. Jasper Calder, M.8.E., Auckland City Missioner, preached the occasional sermon taking the key words, vocation, believe, read, live, obey and work, as the basis of a powerful plea for a willing response from the people among whom the deacon would work and whom he would serve. The candidate was presented by the vicar, the Rev. M. G. Sullivan, M.A. The choir under Mrs M. G. Sullivan rendered the anthem, “How lovely are the Messengers,” the Litany and Marbeck’s setting of the Communion Service. Miss Phyllis North was at the organ.
