Welcome. This week we celebrate Australia Day. It is our own thanksgiving day when we give thanks to God for this wonderful country and the all the good things and good people in it. Be grateful for peace, freedom, health, food, family and the beauty of nature everywhere. Treat Australia well. Face the problems and challenges we have with sincerity Protect families and children; affirm life at all its stages; banish racism, poverty, violence and injustice. Recognise the special place of our indigenous people in this land. Be generous, be positive about the future, and always give thanks. May God’s peace be with you. I’m Barry Hickey, Catholic Archbishop of Perth.

I
believe that God’s love burns deep inside all of us. For
those who choose not to invite God into their lives, the flames
may flicker – but they still exist. These messages may be
just “the spark that ignites the flames of faith
for someone”...
