Was he recruited from the orphanage ? or not?
I understand the orphanage was also denominational ( was it Catholic or Baptist?) and would have required houseparents from that denomination?

The Christopher I know was not. There was a girl who joined from the orphanage. Regarding the denomination of the orphanage, it may have been catholic but I cannot speak with any authority about that. If it did require house parents to be of that persuasion, that would have been of little concern to David, as he has become a quaker today to acheive a desired end in Africa

1984
In March we sent Dave, Cherry, Gary, and Christine to Bangalore, where they met Liz & Rachel. Later in the year Kev painted a mural on the village toilet block and others taught English and cleaned drains. When Dave & Cherry returned to Australia, they took a job as houseparents at a St. Vincent de Paul boys' home in Petersham (Sydney). In July, Boyd & Sheri were arrested for burning money (less than $10) as a demonstration against greed (idolatry) in Wollongong. Amnesty International and the Council for Civil Liberties came to their aid, and Boyd was freed from Long Bay Jail after spending a month in maximum security.

Did Dave McKay ever discuss the idea of burning money in any way before other members of the group did this?

Unclear about this. Were Liz and Rachel recruited/ adopted?
Who was the girl from the orphanage in India?
St Vincent de Paul is Catholic charity.

Rachel was adopted and ended up walking across the nullabour when she was 11 or 12. Liz joined from Bangalore
I prefer not to name the girl from the orphanage
