HENTY’S St Barnabas’s Anglican Church congregation celebrated its centenary last Sunday. A gathering of near 100 people attended a service followed by a dinner. The foundation stone was laid down on February 14, 1917. Officiating was Father Bob Done with Rt Reverend R Gillion, Bishop of Riverina providing the sermon. Other dignitaries were Rev Michael Moulder; Rev. Colin Wellard; Rev. Ken Day and Rev Bill Ginns. The anniversary cake was cut by Arthur Cochrane and Elizabeth Dale. The function was held in the Blue Room at Henty’s Community Club and by all reports was a thoroughly enjoyable get-together with plenty of food.
