RESPECT: To the Year 3 Children of St Pat's School

May is Domestic Violence Prevention Month.  In 2016 the Catholic Bishops of Victoria released a statement committing themselves to the elimination of domestic and family violence in which they say: 
Our goal must be a society where all people are safe in their home, families and close relationships; where violence and abuse are not acceptable; and where all relationships respect the equality and dignity of each person. This is part of the Gospel vision of love and respect. With domestic and family violence on the rise, we are all called to work in ways to eliminate this type of violence. 
The contents of this statement remain relevant as domestic and family violence incidents have increased since 2016.  This month, you are invited to read the Bishops 2016 statement to learn more about a Catholic response to Domestic and Family violence.

The four-year journey of the Fifth Plenary Council of Australia will reach the second – and final – assembly in July 2022.

It contains 30 motions across eight mission areas that the 277 Members – clergy, religious and laity – will vote on this week.

Care for Creation

“Living our vocation to be protectors of God’s handiwork is essential to a life of virtue; it is not an optional or a secondary aspect of our Christian experience.”  Pope Francis, Laudato-si 
“The Season of Creation” is celebrated from the 1st of September (the World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation) and ends on the 4th of October ( the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi). The Season of Creation theme focuses on the fact that the Earth belongs to God, and each beloved creature belongs to this common home (Psalm 24:1).
