Open Door Community Church is welcoming Adrian Turner back to Monbulk after nearly 40 years away.

He has commenced as the church’s minister for the next year, guiding them towards the future.

Adrian established Monbulk Christian Fellowship and was there for seven years during the ’80s.

Since then, he has served time with Christian Fellowship Centre Albury-Wodonga, and at what is now known as Discovery Church in Mt Evelyn.

After an eight-year involvement with Compassion Australia, Adrian was more recently the Intentional Interim Minister at a church in Sunbury.

The congregation of ODCC are excited to plan for the future with Adrian’s guidance, and he is happy to be involved in the missions of the Church, the Op Shop of Open Door Community Care, Open Door Pantry, and the student wellbeing program in our local schools.

The Pantry has proven to be an invaluable help to folk in the community who are finding it difficult to make ends meet.

It is not a supermarket but enables visitors to make an extra meal or two to make it to the next payday or payment. Ready-made meals are always popular, especially for singles.

Profits from the Op Shop help to keep it stocked and the ODCCare Op Shop is a great shopping destination as is the Laneway Nursery next door.

The welcoming folk at the Church would be pleased to see you at the 10 o’clock service each Sunday at the corner of David Hill and Moxhams Roads.
