Australian Indigenous celebrations in July
July 6 marks Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Sunday - a day to celebrate the gifts that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people bring to the Catholic Church in Australia. July 6-13 also marks NAIDOC Week. The Institute's Specific Issues Committee, Indigenous Concerns encourages readers to support these events.
Mercy Works Inc. helping to deliver water in Timor Leste
Access to safe water is essential for life; it is a basic human right. Yet this is not the reality for more than one-sixth of the world’s population. A lack of access to safe drinking water has disastrous effects on the health of people, but it also impacts on their education and employment opportunities.
The online newsletter of the Sisters of Mercy of Australia, PNG and Pakistan, Mercy Matters is a fortnightly publication which aims to enliven and expand our Mercy connections.
