Archbishop Sir Marcus Loane remembers the beginnings of the SUEU

In 1980, members of the Sydney University Evangelical Union were thanking God as they remembered the founding of the SUEU back in 1930.

They marked the jubilee by proclaiming Christ in ‘The Jubilee Mission’. John Chapman and Phillip Jensen were invited to speak at the public meetings.

As part of the preparations, on 30 April 1980, then Archbishop of Sydney, Sir Marcus Loane (1912 – 2009), addressed the SUEU’s End of Term Service, held at the Chapel of Wesley College.

In his 19 minute address, Sir Marcus recalls the beginnings of the Evangelical Union, fifty years earlier.

Former and current members of the SUEU, as well as others, will find this a great encouragement. Listen below:
