Associated Christian Spiritual Churches of Australia

Nominating Authority

Arch Reverend Don Anson SmithReverend Don Anson Smith is the Nominating Authority for the Associated Christian Spiritual Churches of Australia.

"I was born, raised and educated in London, England. Here, I met and married my dear wife Shirley in 1956 and just two years later we migrated to Australia.

I have always had more than a keen interest in religious history, and having had brief associations with Baptist, Methodist, Church of England, Salvation Army and some orthodox churches, I had still no satisfactory answers to my questions.

I was introduced to Spiritualism in 1959 when I visited my first Spiritualist Churches in Sydney, where I joined meditation and spiritual circles and completed a course in Miracles, of which I later became a teacher.

Shirley and I became members of the Caloundra Church in 1992. I served as President and Assistant Minister, holding that position until the Minister retired due to ill health. I was then appointed as the church minister and ordained. When the position of Nominating Authority became vacant on Norman Gunn's retirement, he nominated me to fill that role, and the result of a vote of my peers was unanimous."
