A celebration of 25 years of service at St Jude’s – Dr Allan Beavis OAM | 17 October 2022


I have known Dr Allan Beavis OAM for over a decade now and he has been my organ teacher for a good majority of them. This concert and Evensong is to acknowledge the generous and faithful service to him as Organist and Director of Classical Music at St. Jude’s, Bowral. Allan’s hardworking nature, ministry minded attitude and passion for music has always been greatly appreciated by all. He is an example to us all “Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace” (1 Peter 4:10).
