Midwifery and Mission Unveiling – August 20, 2024

On Tuesday August 20 — much too late but also too important to leave undone — MtE will be “unveiling” the relocated Midwifery and Mission sculpture and presenting it to the CTM/VicTas Synod as part of the congregation’s relocation to the CTM (now just over a year!).

The event will commence at 10.30am in Yuma Auditorium in the CTM with a presentation on the themes and development of sculpture by Rev Dr John Smith, minister of MtE at the time of its 150th celebrations. We will also be joined by Anna Meszaros, the sculptor.

You are most welcome to join us! An indication via the form below of your intention to attend will assist with our setting up and catering, but please come anyway if you’re still too late to RSVP!

Please note that there is no parking available on site at the CTM for this event; parking can be found in the streets about College Crescent or alongside the Melbourne General Cemetery.

Address: The Centre for Theology and Ministry, 29 College Crescent, Parkville
