Welcome to Issue 51 of The Record Magazine. In his 2026 Easter Message, Archbishop Costelloe writes that in these times of global uncertainty — marked by international political tensions, conflicts that seem to continue without end, and economic pressures that weigh heavily on many families and individuals — the Easter message resonates with a promise that there is a better way. Starting from this issue, we welcome Bishop-elect Nelson Po as a new Auxiliary Bishop for the Archdiocese of Perth. He has also written a special Easter message ahead of his official Episcopal Ordination in mid-April. Don’t forget
