Heather was officially ordained into the role by Bishop Gary Weatherill at an ordination ceremony in Ballarat on Saturday, May 21.
The previous incumbent at the Stawell Anglican Church, Anne McKenna, moved on to Castlemaine at the end of February.
Reverend McKenna was successful in becoming one of the first female priests to be ordained in the Ballarat Diocese. She was ordained during a ceremony in December last year.
Heather Scott will be ministering to the Stawell parish which includes Halls Gap, Landsborough and Navarre.
Her husband, Peter, has retired from full time ministry, and is supporting Heather in her work.
