A vision realised

At last I  have seen two churches in Adelaide with solar voltaic cells on the roof. The churches of Galway Avenue, Broadview Uniting and St Philip's Anglican dedicated their solar panels yesterday before a combined audience from both churches and guests from afar. A member of the Prospect Council spoke, the Mayor unfortunately being unavoidably absent, about the support provided by the council in the submission process for funding from the Federal Government. Then the Rev Caroline Pearce (Anglican) led the prayers of dedication for the Broadview UC panels. The group then walked across the road to St Philips and gathered in view of the other set of panels. The Rev Rebecca Purling (Uniting Church) led the prayers for the St Philip's Anglican panels. A number of us then entered the church and viewed the inverter.

I have emailed Rebecca and requested a copy of the prayers which I shall hopefully add here.

Rev Rebecca Purling and Rev Caroline Pearce

Clean power from the sun.
