Perth Archbishop Timothy Costelloe has last week on Good Friday, 15 April, invited the congregation to remember the image of Mary at the foot of the cross.

“Which invites us to remember, and to pray for, all those mothers who are grieving the loss of their sons and daughters, of their husbands, and of their brothers and sisters, in the dreadful conflict which is engulfing Ukraine,” Archbishop Costelloe said.
