Australian Catholics are being invited to take part in a unique national evangelisation conference on 20-22 October to be hosted online by the Australian Bishops Commission for Evangelisation, Laity and Ministry.

Western society’s ideas of masculinity seem to be constantly redefined by fashion, the media and family law in recent years, in much the same manner as western morals have become increasingly relative – and the impact of this on the Church has been one of slowly declining attendance among men aged 18 to 35.

Young adults from across the globe have last Sunday virtually participated in the Sacramentum conference closing Mass with encouragement from celebrant Perth Auxiliary Bishop Don Sproxton to embrace the love of Jesus, and use it to be an example to others.

Participants of the Sacramentumyoung adults online conference spent last weekend from 15 to 17 May deepening their faith, learning more about prayer, forming connections with one another, and getting their difficult questions answered as they delved into Jason Evert’s book, Saint John Paul the Great: His Five Loves.
