Dear colleagues and friends

I have been advised that the Very Rev John Murray died this morning (Friday, 17 February) at a hospice in Kapiti. 

We pause and acknowledge John’s life and the many contributions he made.

We express our love, sympathy and support - and our prayers - to Shirley and the family.

John was born in November 1929, and attended St Clair School, followed by Westminster College, then undertook MA studies at Otago University.

He attended the Theological Hall as a special student in 1952.
