3. What are you most looking forward to?
It’s a while off yet, but I’m looking forward to getting stuck into the opportunities for preaching and evangelism. I’m looking forward to meeting the Cathedral church family, getting to know them, the challenges they face and the opportunities they have in living for Jesus. I’m looking forward to meeting those already engaged in gospel work in the city and seeing how we can support one another in advancing the interests of the Lord in ”˜that great city’.
Congratulations to Dean Raffel. We look forward to his work.
Like most of his predecessors, he has seen extensive service in another diocese or overseas before becoming Dean of Sydney. That outside experience, combined with his orthodoxy (good to see the connections with Gafcon and St Helens Bishopsgate) augurs well for his ministry.
