One year ago today, on June 15, 2018, Father Valerijan Jenko OFM, OAM, passed way in Ljubljana, aged 92. Today, we remember him as one of the pillars of the Slovenian community in Australia, who also established the St Raphael's Slovenian Catholic Church and mission in Merrylands, Sydney, with the help and support of the Slovenian community in NSW. In this interview, we speak with well known, active Slovenian in Sydney, Mark Stariha about when the commemorative busts to Fr.

Danes, točno pred letom dni, 15. junija, 2018, smo za vedno izgubili patra Valerijana Jenka OFM OAM, eden od stebrov slovenske skupnosti v Avstraliji. Več kot pol stoletja je neumorno delal v korist in dobrobit naše skupnosti pod južnim križem. Bil je zelo skromen duhovnik, kulturni in socialni delavec ter ponosen in zaveden Slovenec. Pogovarjali smo se z zelo aktivnim članom slovenske skupnosti v Sydneyu, Markom Stariha ki nam je povedal več o kdaj bo predstavitev doprsnega kipa pri Sv. Rafaelu in spomenika na pokopališču Rookwood, posvečen p. Valerijanu Jenku.
