Liturgies

On the hundredth anniversary of the first parish priest of St Marys South Brisbane Fr. Dorrigan's untimely death, Chris and Terry share a well hidden secret.

Anne speaks of the courage we will need as we face our uncertain future as a planet together.

In light of Bishop John Shelby Spongs' thoughts on Prayer we reflect together as the SMX Community.

Doug Yuille invites us to gather the strength to overcome pessimism and despair about climate change, to ignore the false narratives from vested interests and to seize the brilliant emerging opportunities to restore our planetary life support system.

Brian asks the question, "What is Spirit" ?

Terry inquires that by not taking Climate Change seriously are our decision makers mocking the future, and in turn laughing at all of us.

Jo Inkpin, Australia's first transgender priest, explores how theology from the margins brings the Bible alive in liberating ways. She invites us to see and explore in the Bible the extraordinary diversity and dynamic of goodness in creation, the central call to justice and infinite compassion for all.

Liz reminds us that the gospel writers had Jesus, after his baptism, head off into the wilderness to find his own way down a rather different path. Ten years ago we at SMX after our baptism of exile have chosen to find our own liberated way.

On the anniversary of our 10 years in Exile Kate Ellis shares beautifully some of our journey.
