We are called fortunate

And God holy,

Whose mercy is from generation to generation

For air and oceans, mercy

For dying species, mercy

For inundated islands, mercy

For asylum seekers, mercy

For our children and grandchildren, mercy

For all species now and to come, mercy.

(Praying the Magnificat in a Time of Ecological Crisis, Anne Elvey)

Staff Professional Development Day

Yesterday we were fortunate to enjoy a day together at the Warrnambool Surf Life saving Club engaging in a Religious Education and Spirituality retreat led by Sr Veronica Lawson.

The focus of the day was to encounter scripture through ecology and the earth.

There were opportunities to listen, to discuss, to pray and to soak up our beautiful natural environment here in Warrnambool.

Thanks to Cara Chisolm and our RE team who planned and led the day with Sr Veronica.
