Next weekend is Chaplaincy Sunday in the Archdiocese of Melbourne. The presence of Catholic Chaplains provides hope to those suffering from loneliness, physical illness, mental health challenges and HIV/AIDS. As well as those facing youth detention, a prison sentence or long bouts of time at sea, away from Church support, family and friends. The presence of Catholic Chaplains is also a crucial witness to our faith, a crucial dimension of our service of love, and a vital testimony to the value of life in all its stages. You are invited and encouraged to take home the envelopes in the seats next weekend . Donations will go towards supporting Chaplains who work with:
- Patients and their families in public hospital
- Those affected by menal illness
- Men and women in Prisons
- Young people in youth justice facilities
- Seafarers
