The intern program started in 2014. It has been a great benefit to Tandara as a camp and also the people of the wider Victorian/Tasmanian District. The job of managing the camp has become a much bigger workload. Therefore in 2015 James and Judi Doecke were also welcomed in part-time roles.

New Holy Trinity Address Books Available Contact the church office or pick up a copy from the box on the table in the hall.

Most people find these very helpful, to contact other members easily or pray for them Lutheran Men of Victoria 2015 Retreat New Staff Josh Tedham I was born in Millicent. South Australia, went to Millicent High School and St Martin’s Lutheran College. My interests include video games, reading, clay sculpting, bird watching and palaeontology (study of fossils). I applied for the internship because I thought it would be a great opportunity to help me grow in confidence around others, gain more fitness and grow more spiritually. James Ker I am the son of the pastor at Warrnambool. My greatest passion is computers. I love their logical complexity. I also find the internet to be one of mankind’s most fascinating creations. The biggest challenge for me at Tandara has been dealing with so many people. I’m not very comfortable around others, but as they say life’s no fun if you never leave your comfort zone so I’ve been welcoming the opportunities. James & Judi Doecke James was LCA Director for Lay Ministry, then Interim Manager at Warrambui Retreat and Conference Centre. They planned to travel Australia in their caravan but after a few months God challenged them with the position at Tandara. They accepted after many prayers and discussions.
