Celebrating the 90th anniversary of Sacred Heart Church, Mundaring Parish, Perth Archbishop Timothy Costelloe SDB explained that a priestly people will be a group of people who are prepared and willing and doing their very best to offer themselves for the sake of others.

“We’re all called to do that,” Archbishop Costelloe said.

Caritas Australia, the Catholic Church’s international aid and development agency, has appointed its first board of directors, a move dictated by the recent incorporation process commenced by the Australian Catholic Bishops’ Conference over a year ago – to foster improved accountability, transparency and governance practices.
