Liturgies

Terry will speaking about the importance of remembering. As Christians we are disciples of Jesus. Jesus invited his disciples to remember him in the breaking of the bread. On Anzac Day every year we remember those who gave their lives for this country. He will be making a case for why it is important to remember ALL those who gave their lives.

Margaret Clifford will continue with the Easter theme and speak about the many ways we can experience awe and how it can transform our lives. This awe moment is the divine presence breaking into our lives, lifting us up, out of ourselves, to something vast, to connectedness, so we live lives of moral beauty.

Our world cries out to hear the timeless message of Easter, that this divine essence which lies at the heart of all life, will never leave us. To deeply hear the words, I AM with you always. This I AM is always there to guide, strengthen and inspire us to act with Justice, to love tenderly, and to walk humbly with God.

We are reminded once again in these profound and prophetic actions of Jesus, that love lies at the very heart of his message. That all are created equal, and that the divine essence is calling from within each of us to act with justice, to love tenderly, and to walk humbly with God.

Liz Little will be speaks about Jesus' alternate parade of peace which was a stark contrast to Rome's showy, intimidating display of power by oppression.

As we continue our journey through Lent, we examine the social justice meaning of the season. How can this shape our commitment to Justice for First Nations People?

Wayne will be speaking about how the Voice to Parliament could improve many areas relating to First Nations people, no more so than in relation to health. He will be sharing some personal stories growing up with an aboriginal boy called Billy.

This weekend we will be listening to a recording of Megan Davis, one of the authors of the "Uluru Statement from the Heart' who will be clearly outlining the reasons for a Voice to Parliament for First Nations peoples of Australia.

Continuing our Lenten journey, this week reflects on Lent as a call to look clear-sighted at ourselves and our world, including the structures of power and violence in which we are implicated, unwittingly or not. But Lent is not about getting handicapped by guilt, which undermines dialogue and listening, but rather working with others from a place of love towards realising our interconnectedness. This is an ongoing journey. In this context, the homily looks at Voice, what it is, what it isn’t and what it could be.
