This week, 27 May until 3 June, we as a Merici College community join the rest of Australia in the celebration of National Reconciliation Week 2023. During this time we reflect and acknowledge Indigenous history, knowledge and culture within Australia. Furthermore, we use this time to have open discussions about how we as individuals, communities and as a nation can foster reconciliation inspired by this year’s theme “Be a Voice for Generations”.
“‘How inseparable is the bond between concern for nature, justice for the poor, commitment to society, and interior peace”
(Pope Francis ‘Laudato Si’ – On Care for Our Common Home’ 2015 para 10)
Through his encyclical, Laudato Sí , Pope Francis provides advice on how to address these world problems.
