Inclusion

“Welcoming others means welcoming God in person” – Pope Francis calls us to the margins and to meet people where they are.

Reading the signs of the times in the light of the Gospel, our vision for the Archdiocese of Brisbane is one of a culture of radical welcome and belonging. Through the implementation of best practice and dedication to the Gospel imperative for an inclusive church, our vision commits us to:

• listening to understand past hurts, walking together in dignity, creating a safe and welcoming church and responding to the needs of the most vulnerable
• leading and pioneering the coordination and implementation of Archdiocesan Synod Decrees, the Reconciliation Action Plan, Laudato Si’ Action Plan, Refugee Sponsorship Initiative, unconscious bias training, multicultural pastoral care and interculturality, ecumenism and inter-faith relations.

We invite you to join with us in creating an inviting, inclusive church by engaging with the projects and initiatives we have on offer.
