Mercy: Transforming The Soul of Australia

CONTEXT

This DVD presents an edited version of the inaugural Catherine McAuley Symposium, held in Brisbane on September 8, 2008. The aim of this gathering was to consider the story of Catherine McAuley, as we reinterpret her charism in the light of the needs of Australia today.

The DVD is divided into two sections: PART ONE sets the context of the occasion and presents the keynote address.

PART TWO contains responses from three speakers who are currently engaged in Mercy ministries.

USE OF DVD

This resource could be used in small or large groups of sisters, colleagues, associates or senior students. It is recommended that a break be taken after the keynote address (Part One) for reflection or discussion.  Questions are offered to assist this process.

The Responses (Part Two) name many challenges for Mercy today and will evoke robust discussion.

Alternatively, a group may prefer to invite respondents from the local area to share the thoughts that arise for them as they reflect on the keynote address.
