Province appoints Danald Jute as 14 th Bishop of Kuching Many of you will remember Rev Danald Jute and his family who joined St Oswald’s from Milngavie. He led our worship and cared for the congregation for a short period of only a year. Revd Danald, age 51, was previously the Vicar of the Good Shepherd Church in Lutong, in Sarawak. He is also a member of a number of ministries within the Diocese and the Province. Ordained as a Priest in 1993, Revd Danald received his Diploma in Missiology from the Australian College of Theology and his Bachelor of Divinity from the University of Edinburgh, Scotland. From 2003 to 2009 he served in the diocese of Glasgow in Scotland, in charge of St Oswald’s. Revd Danald is married to Julita Jack Sungul and they have 4 children - Izra, lona, Ian and Ingrid. Revd Danald said: “I believe that a priest has been called and entrusted by the Lord to feed, nurture and lead His people, at the same time reaching out to the lost world with the life changing Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. My pattern and model of leadership is none other than the Good Shepherd, the Son of Man, Jesus Christ, who came to serve and not to be served” he said. Church members are either pillars or caterpillars. The pillars hold up the church; the caterpillars just crawl in and out! StOM Page 24
