Margaret LockMargaret was born in Gillingham Kent, England in July 1935. Margaret moved to Australia in 1949 with her parents and sister and brother and settled in Adelaide. Margaret was confirmed at St. Phillip's Church, Somerton Park in 1972. After the death of both her parents Margaret moved to Melbourne in 1973 where she lived and worked until July 1980 when she then moved to Hobart. Margaret met her husband John in 1986 and they married in 1988. Margaret has two step-daughters and has since been blessed with five grandchildren. Margaret's personal sense of calling became apparent during the six years that she worshipped at St George's Battery Point 1980-86, where she felt the desire to grow in faith and commitment to the Lord. In 1991 John and Margaret began worshipping at St Mark's Bellerive, where they both trained, and became Lay Readers in 1993. After John's death in 1996 Margaret became involved with Pastoral Care, and has been Pastoral Care co-ordinator and carer since that time. In 1997 Margaret did the Education for Ministry course and completed the four years, going on to complete a unit of C.P.E at the Royal Hobart Hospital and then joining the Chaplaincy team at R.H.H. until March 2000. Since August 2000 Margaret has continued in further developing her skills, completing three units with I.T.E. Theology and Pastoral Ministry, and fieldwork within the Parish. Margaret's dedication to her spiritual home, St Mark's, has been tested over the years. In July 2002 Margaret was ordained Deacon. Margaret describes her journey of faith as most fulfilling, and her commitment to God is foremost in her life, by His Grace she endeavors to carry out her duties, as assistant priest at St Mark's Bellerive, faithfully serving in His Holy name. |
