The Peacemaker
(the Emu, Brolga and Jabiru)

A Dreamtime Story about reconciliation
by Pastor George Rosendale

from the Wontulp-Bi-Buya College Bookshop:

The ‘Peacemaker Story’ is a traditional Dreamtime story, owned and theologically interpreted by Pastor George Rosendale of Hopevale.  This production was originally intended to be a resource  for Wontulp-Bi-Buya’s students in leading Religious Education classes for children in their communities.  It is now capturing the hearts of both adults and children who have heard it regardless of their background.
The book is written in words spoken by Pastor George (Teacher of Theology at Wontulp-Bi-Buya College) and illustrated in traditional style by Aboriginal artist Zane Saunders.

The publication of this easily read picture book and worksheets is the first of a series of “Rainbow Theology for Young Australians”, promoting Christianity and reconciliation for children through the eyes of Indigenous Australians.  It will engender a new vision for Christians from an Indigenous perspective and one that is uniquely Australian.  The book has been sponsored by the Anglican Church of Australia’s Engaging Australia funding programme.
