Historical information

The Rev. Thomas Hope (1846-1916) was a highly esteemed Congregational minister in South Australia. He was educated at Lancashire College and began his ministry in 1872. His first appointment was to Clayton Church, Kensington, which he ministered for 17 years, before moving to Sydney and becoming pastor of the Congregational Church at Waverley. He later moved to Hindmarsh where he held the pastorate for 14 years, and upon his retirement was made honorary pastor. He also served Clayton Church in various capacities, filling the positions of Moderator and acting pastor when the Church was without a minister, and was made honorary pastorate for life in February 1916. For many years he was the Secretary of the Parkin Congregational Mission. Died in November 1916, aged 70.
