Acknowledging Ted McCormack MSC, July 14th, 90 years of age.
Tomorrow, Fr Ted McCormack MSC turns 90. He will celebrate at Monivae College his base for many years for parish supply in the Sandhurst and Ballarat dioceses.
Born July 14th 1933, he made his first profession, 26th February 1954. After seven years of studies at Croydon Monastery, he was ordained 24th July 1960.
Ted has been a member of the Victoria-Tasmania community for many years.
Ted spent many years in PNG as a military and police chaplain, missionary work in a demanding professional area.
In later years, he worked in MSC parishes like Moonah, Hobart. Later, he made himself available for parish supply for priests going on holidays. This has taken him around the state of Victoria, many parishes - and the Bishops happy to ask for his services. This is significant ministry for a man in his later seventies and into his eighties. This month he is 63 years ordained.
