Integrity in the Service of the Church

A resource document has been produced by the Australian Catholic Bishops and the
Leaders of Religious Institutes in Australia. The document aims to help Church
Workers reflect on and uphold Christian vision and values in all relationships and
actions. The five basic principles FOR Church Workers are :

* Commitment to justice and equity
* Upholding the dignity of all people
* Commitment to safe and supportive relationships
* Reaching out to those who are poor, alienated or marginalised
* Striving for excellence in all their work

During August there will be opportunities given to ensure all employed staff and
volunteers become familiar with the principles outlined in the document. It is hoped
that parishioners will take advantage of this opportunity.

St Vincent de Paul Annual Appeal: St Josephs Conference Welfare Group would
like to acknowledge the generous response of parishioners to last weekends Winter
Appeal Collection: $1,632.50. This money will be well utilised for the benefit of
those in need in our community. Thank you all for your thoughtful consideration.
