Winha-nga-rra: Listen, Hear, Reflect.
Come and take time to listen, hear and reflect in the Wiradjuri tradition. Similar in meaning to dadirri from Ngan' gikurunggurr and Ngen' gwiumirri languages of the Aboriginal people of the Daly River region.
Walk your country and if you listen carefully it tell you what it knows, what you need to know and what it needs from you.
Anglicare Food Collection - Saturday 18th August 9:00am
Our parish collect items for Anglicare Mission House in Fitzroy. This food is then distributed to needy people in the inner city area.
Our Annual Collection expands the scope of our giving and enables more people to participate in the donation of food for which there is an ever increasing need.
This year there was an excellent response to the appeal.
Many thanks to Jill O’Shea and Richard Carter
