About This Item
Sydney, Macquarie Park: Greenwood Press / Baptist Historical Society of New South Wales, 2013. Paperback trade, very good condition, black & white photos, top spine little rubbed, minor edgewear. 136 pp. This biography is about Albert Leonard Leeder who was born on 30th June 1880 to a farming family in Essex, U.K. In 1908 Albert and his wife Margaret left the "land of their birth" and sailed to Australia "the land of their adoption." Albert rarely used his Christian name: he was known to friends, family and colleagues as Leonard, Len, A.L.L. or A.L. Leeder. He accepted a call to the pastorate of the Moonah Baptist Church in Tasmania. Ministries at Maryborough (Queensland), Lithgow (NSW) and Pymble (NSW) followed. When he retired he was appointed as honorary Chaplain at "Bethel", a nursing home for elderly ladies sponsored by the Ashfield Baptist Church. He continued this work until a few weeks before his death at the age of 81 years.
