Our previous incumbent, Reverend Elizabeth Breakey, was born in Scotland and has lived in Australia for over 20 years. Originally trained as a corrosion engineer, Elizabeth was ordained as a priest in the Anglican Church of Australia in 2013. By sheer luck of her surname, she had the honour of being the first woman to be ordained by a woman (Bishop Barbara Darling) in Australia.
Elizabeth was appointed to the Bellarine Gateway parish in 2015 and returned to Scotland in mid 2022.
