RECOGNITION OF ABORIGINAL AND T I PEOPLE IN THE CONSTITUTION.
There is a panel elected by the government which is canvassing ways of removing the “race power” from the Constitution. There are details on the website, youmeunity.org.au with a discussion paper and a form which can be filled out for a submission to the panel. They are very keen to receive submissions from the community and it is surely one of the social justice issues of concern to members of St Marys community.
Out of Town Cluster
One of our supporters in Townsville would like to meet with like-minded people to discuss matters of interest. Would you like to be part of this group? Those of us who belong to clusters in Brisbane can give the idea a tick. We find the opportunity to get together for discussions, meditation, liturgy or just for socializing, really works very well. If you are interested contact Lori lathompson19@bigpond.com. Other non-Brisbane supporters might like to consider the possibility of setting up clusters as well.

Acknowledgement of Traditional owners
We acknowledge the traditional owners of this land where we are now gathered and recognise that it continues to be sacred to them. We salute them – guardians of the earth and all that grows, of the seas, streams and rivers and of all living things.
We thank them for passing this heritage on to every people since the dreamtime.
