Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Diamond Jubilee of Holy Trinity ParishPrint Page 
The foundation stone of the new chancel was laid in 1920 to commemorate the Diamond Jubilee of the Holy Trinity Parish.
Bishop Le Fanu will lay the foundation stone of a new chancel at Holy Trinity Church, Fortitude Valley, tomorrow (Trinity Sunday), as a memorial of the diamond jubilee of the church. There will be special music by an augmented choir which will appear for first time fully robed. The Albion Salvation Array Band will assist. A parchment copy of the honour roll containing the names of all Church of England men from the parish who served in the war, the diamond jubilee booklet, and other documents will be placed in a cavity of the stone. There will be a celebration of holy communion at 7.30 a.m., at which some beautiful birthday gifts to the church will be dedicated. Particulars of other services during the week are advertised.
Telegraph (Brisbane, Qld.), 29 May 1920.
