We will also be holding an Information Night in February 2019. 2019 Pilgrimage to the Holy Land Visiting the land of Jesus is a discovery with various layers. One interaction with its terrain most visitors never forget is the joy of finding the images of the Bible reflected in the real places and sites that retell the story from a different perspective. For Knights and Dames of our Order it is also an opportunity to meet with our Christian brothers and sisters and gather a deeper understanding of their situation. Knights and Dames, with family and friends, are invited to join Ecclesiastic Knight Fr Simon Grainger KCHS in the Holy Land from Thursday 2 May 2019 through Wednesday 14 May 2019.

For those wishing to visit Petra in Jordan, this can be organised separately prior to the pilgrimage. The cost for the 14 days land component of the pilgrimage is $US 2,425 pp (approx. $AUD 3,500) for twin share. Single supplement is $US 726 (approx. $AUD 1,040) and a child under 12 y.o. in a room with two adults, will be charged $US 1,628 (approx. $AUD 2,326). The actual AUD cost will be determined at the time payment is due in mid-February 2019. Included in the cost are: • Airport transfers, • Accommodation in double occupancy based on dinner, bed and breakfast, • Modern air-conditioned transport, • English speaking guide, • 13 lunches in Holy land and Jordan, EOHSJ Australia-Victoria June 2018 Newsletter pg. 4 • Jordan border tax, • Entrance fees. Pilgrims need to arrange their own flights to and from Amman. Departure can be arranged through Tel Aviv. It is important to arrange travel insurance for the duration. For those concerned with safety, Laila Tours have advised that from time to time there are incidents which are widely publicised in the world media. However, in general these incidents are localised and do not affect pilgrims. Where there is a known disturbance the tour company will reconfigure the itinerary to avoid the disturbance and possibly return when the disturbance has passed. The company has the safety of pilgrims and their staff as the highest priority. For more information contact Will Kininmonth on 0418 376 236 or [email protected].

Our Chaplain Knight Fr David Cartwright is leading a 15-day Parish pilgrimage departing 7 January 2019. For details contact Fr Cartwright at [email protected] 2.

  • The Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
    July 8, 2018 The Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time July 15, 2018 The Fifteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time The Confessional is Sacrosanct A Catholic archbishop has said he is prepared to be jailed for failing to report child sex abuse if it is revealed to him during confession. Denis Hart, Archbishop of Melbourne, insisted confession was "a spiritual encounter with God through the priest" and was "of a higher order" than criminal law. His comments came after the Australian Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse said there should be "no excuse, protection nor privilege" for clergy who failed to alert police of abuse. It recommended priests should face criminal charges for failing to report information heard during confession, one of 85 sweeping changes to the criminal justice system proposed in a report on Monday. "We understand the significance of religious confession - in particular, the inviolability of the confessional seal to people of some faiths, particularly the Catholic faith", said the report. "However, we heard evidence of a number of instances where disclosures of child sexual abuse were made in religious confession, by both victims and perpetrators. ”We are satisfied that confession is a forum where Catholic children have disclosed their sexual abuse and where clergy have disclosed their abusive behavior in order to deal with their own guilt." But Archbishop Hart, President of the Australian Catholic Bishops Conference, called for the confessional seal to remain protected by law. "Confession in the Catholic Church is a spiritual encounter with God through the priest," he said in a statement.

The TJHC will oversee the Catholic Church's engagement with the Royal Commission into institutional responses to child sexual abuse. Francis Sullivan, CEO of the Council, welcomed the announcement saying the 13 member Council is made up of men and women with professional and other expertise, especially across child sexual abuse, paedophilia, trauma, mental illness, suicide and public policy. “The Church and members of the TJHC are determined that the truth be told and that the Church assists victims and those damaged by abuse as children receive justice and to embark on a sustainable process of healing. ” Francis Sullivan said. “Councillors have been chosen for their obvious expertise and their willingness to give frank and independent advice.” “This Council will guide the Church as it goes through the Royal Commission, and will approach the task with openness and compassion.” “ We accept that the Royal Commission may well reveal embarrassing and shameful episodes from our past, but it is necessary in order for the truth to heal and for the community to see that our engagement is genuine and sincere.” “ Our task also involves advising the Church on the best practice changes to protect children and prevent sexual abuse.” “ This is a crucial task as the Church demonstrates through its actions that the welfare and safety of children are the highest priority.” The Truth Justice and Healing Council will hold its first meeting in Sydney in mid April.

  • Pell, Hart Were Leaders in Addressing Child Sex Abuse
    KL Pell, Hart were leaders in addressing child sex abuse Gerard Henderson Published: June 4, 2013 - 12:14PM Cardinal George Pell in Sydney and Archbishop Denis Hart in Melbourne have become public targets for criticism concerning sexual abuse by priests and brothers within the Catholic Church in Australia. The evidence suggests that paedophiles have been active in religious and secular institutions and elsewhere over the years, particularly between the 1950s and the 1980s. The situation within the Catholic Church has been particularly serious. During their recent appearances before the Victorian parliamentary inq uiry into child abuse, Pell and Hart were subjected to hectoring by some parliamentarians, along with occasional demonstrations and generally hostile media coverage, particularly on the ABC and in The Age . Yet it appears they were among the first Catholic leaders in the world to address the issue in a serious way. A lot of the commentary on this issue has been replete with an ignorance as to how the Catholic Church operates by those who should know better. For example, on ABC1's News Breakfast last week Way ne Chamley of Broken Rites said the Church "runs on anarchy". It doesn't. Last July, the Four Corners program ''Unholy Silence'', by Geoff Thompson and Mary Ann Jolley, failed to make the point that Pell is not responsible for archdioceses or dioceses othe r than his own. Each bishop reports direct to the Pope in what is an authoritarian structure. More seriously, Four Corners refused to run Pell's comment to this effect, either in the program itself or in the extended interview which is on the Four Corners website.

I join the Catholic community in the Archdiocese of Melbourne in our prayerful and heartfelt welcome to him.” Archbishop-elect Comensoli said he was deeply moved by the Holy Father’s trust in making this appointment. “The life of Christian discipleship is a precious gift, developed through hearing and responding to God’s call. In accepting this call to be a missionary among God’s People of the Archdiocese of Melbourne, I readily acknowledge the great responsibility entrusted to me, along with the frailties I carry. “To the good people of Melbourne, let me say that you are already in my prayers. As I come among you I place my trust in the tender encouragement of Jesus, through his Blessed Mother. We are pilgrims together in the Lord’s vineyard. As we take these first steps in friendship, may we anchor our lives to his Gospel. “I am deeply aware of the painful witness you bear because of the crimes committed in the Church against the most innocent, our children and the vulnerable.

  • The Catholic Archbishop of Melbourne, Denis Hart, Announced on Behalf
    media release Date: 21 September 2012 FACING THE TRUTH Submission by the Catholic Church in Victoria to the Inquiry into the Handling of Child Abuse by Religious and other Non-Government Organisations The Catholic Archbishop of Melbourne, Denis Hart, announced on behalf of the leaders of the Catholic Church in Victoria that today they would lodge the Church’s submission, Facing the Truth, to the Victorian Parliamentary Inquiry into the Handling of Child Abuse by Religious and other Non-Government Organisations. “We will co-operate fully with the Inquiry, and in Facing the Truth we have been open about the horrific abuse that has occurred in Victoria and elsewhere. “Sexual abuse in the Catholic Church has caused deep concern among Catholics and the wider community. It is shameful and shocking that this abuse, with its dramatic impact on those who were abused and their families, was committed by Catholic priests, religious and church workers. “In our submission we discuss the Church’s commitment to caring for children, the failures of the Church, and the developments in society’s and the Church’s understanding of the pernicious nature of paedophilia. It includes a detailed chronology from 1961 to today of such developments in the English speaking world. “The Church, both internationally and in Australia, has continued to review and refine its processes, procedures, and practices. We put the child first, and our refined measures promote the protection of children. “Putting the child first means the Church supports those brave victims who come forward to speak at the Inquiry, and also supports and respects the privacy of those who choose not to report their complaint to the police.

    AUSTRALIAN CATHOLIC BISHOPS CONFERENCE MEDIA RELEASE 7 November 2014 Appointment of Two New Auxiliary Bishops of Melbourne The Holy Father Pope Francis has appointed as Auxiliary Bishops of Melbourne, the Reverend Monsignor Terence Curtin and the Reverend Father Mark Stuart Edwards OMI. Mgr Curtin is currently Parish Priest of Greythorn and the Episcopal Vicar for the Eastern Region of the Archdiocese of Melbourne. Fr Edwards is presently Rector of Iona College in Brisbane. Congratulating both priests on their appointments, President of the Australian Catholic Bishops Conference, Archbishop Denis Hart said: “On behalf of the people of Melbourne, I welcome the Holy Father’s care for us in appointing bishops-elect Terence Curtin and Mark Edwards as auxiliary bishops.” Born in Cremorne, Sydney on 20 July 1945, Mgr Curtin was educated at St Kevin’s College, Toorak. Joining the Regional Seminary of Melbourne, he completed his priestly formation at the Pontifical Urban College, Rome. Graduating with a Bachelor’s Degree in Education from the University of Melbourne and later on a Doctorate of Theology from the Pontifical Gregorian University, Rome, Mgr Curtin was ordained a priest for the Archdiocese of Melbourne on 28 August 1971. He was made a Monsignor in 2012. Mgr Curtin worked in academia at the Australian Catholic University for almost 30 years and then at Catholic Theological College for the last 12 years. Speaking to the bishops’ conference following his appointment, Mgr Curtin said: “From the first day my father drove me to the seminary at Werribee, I’ve always felt my vocation was in Melbourne, even though the family was moving to Sydney at the end of that year.” “Being called to be an auxiliary bishop is a great opportunity to be a witness, to share faith and spread the mission of the Church rejoicing in all of the wonderful things that people are doing in the archdiocese,” Mgr Curtin said.
