Encounter the Sacred

Mary MacKillop
Spirituality Ministry

Inspired by the Gospel and the lived experience of Saint Mary MacKillop and Father Julian Tenison Woods, the Mary MacKillop Spirituality Ministry invites all to encounter the sacred at the heart of everyday life. We offer experiences for the whole community within spaces that inspire, connect and renew.

Book seaside accommodation and sample delicious menus, hold your next conference in unique heritage centres located in the heart of the CBD, nourish your mind, body and soul at one of our inspiring retreats and workshops, or bring your school group to visit authentic historical museums and learn about Mary MacKillop’s life, interacting with original artifacts belonging to Australia’s first saint.
