PLENTY OF NEW FACES AT
EMG EASTER SERVICE
A bitterly cold morning it may have been, but a hearty
congregation of East Melbourne Glen Chapter members
joined OSCA Chaplain Graham Bradbeer and Organist
Steve Manders (’73) to celebrate the life-affirming
message of Easter in the Littlejohn Chapel on Tuesday
26 March.
This event is always well attended by a group of
regulars, but this year it was heartening to see a whole
host of new faces joining the throng. The Chapel, with its
beautiful interiors and stained glass windows dedicated
to the memory of Old Boys who gave their lives in World
War II, is always a decorous and fitting setting for this

most important of commemorative occasions on the
Christian calendar.
Graham Bradbeer’s sermon was entitled ‘On the
lookout for the kingdom of God’.
Bill Philip’s (’46) and Tim Shearer’s (’85) readings
touched on Jesus’ anointment at Bethany, and the
Resurrection, respectively; while an array of triumphant
hymns rounded out formal proceedings.
Following the service, the bonhomie continued more
informally as guests relocated to the recently revamped
Boarders’ Dining Hall to admire the new surroundings
and share conversation, hot cross buns and Easter eggs.
