Church of the Epiphany Honour RollPrint Page
The wooden honour roll commemorates those connected with the church and district who served in World War One and World War Two. The roll was originally unveiled in memory of those who served in World War One with the names of those who lost their lives in World War Two added to the roll at a later date.
On Sunday last the Bishop of Adelaide (Rev. A. Nutter Thomas) unveiled and dedicated the honor roll that has been placed in the Crafers' Anglican Church, in memory of the men who volunteered for service in the great war. The roll, which, contains the names of sixty warriors, is a fine piece of work, nicely carved and beautifully finished throughout, and extends over the full length of the western wall of the church. The Bishop subsequently preached to a large congregation. Touching upon the present industrial unrest he deprecated the exploitation being indulged in by the capitalistic section of the community to the detriment of others, and also deplored the actions of a certain section of the working class that had the effect of limiting the production of their fellow workmen, and he said that what was needed in these times was a deeper faith in the teachings of Christ.
