Welcome to MU in Tasmania, Australia’s most compact State and Diocese, it is an island of great diversity and those who live in Tasmania are enthusiastic about our home; from the wilderness of the South West to the rich farming areas of the North West Coast, from the mining in the West to the ecologically sound hydro-electric scheme of the Central Highlands, to the fishing ports in the East.
Tasmania is a great place and our members are always willing to welcome visitors. MU AUSTRALIA... its beginnings in Tasmania
Tasmania is a compact diocese (with a population of only about 500,000). This enables members to meet together without the ‘tyranny of distance’ suffered by members in other dioceses as we pray, work and enjoy fellowship together. |
The Work of AMUA Tasmania
- Making scrapbooks for Nursing Homes. St Mark’s Bellerive in the South have made over 130 books, taking them to every Nursing home in the South of the State.
- Fiddle rugs for Nursing Homes.
- Toiletries and gifts have been provided for the prisoners, and those in remand.
- Members are still very enthusiastic with taking bootees, matinee jackets, bonnets and mittens to the Hospitals for new Mothers. Several times the recipient has been a young mother who had nothing to dress the baby in to take home from hospital, so have been very gratefully received.
