> BISHOP ARTHUR MALCOLM
> It is with sadness that I advise of the death of Bishop Arthur Malcolm, on the morning of Friday 29th July 2022 in Cairns, Far North Queensland.
> Bishop Arthur was the first Australian Aboriginal Bishop, who worked hard for reconciliation and in the service of others.
> Above all, he was a man of great service and love - for God, for his family, and for his community and all those who knew him.
> I benefited greatly from his wisdom in the time that I have been Bishop of North Queensland, and there are so many who have been blessed by having Arthur as a friend.
> He died peacefully with his beloved wife Colleen at his side. Please pray for Auntie Colleen and their family, and for the community at Yarrabah as they mourn.
> Funeral arrangements will be advised. May our brother Arthur rest in peace and rise in the glory of our Lord Jesus.
