October 1–3
‘Renewed & Sent: Parish Renewal Summit‘
St. Gregory’s College, Campbelltown, Australia
Across Australia, something quiet — but real — is happening in parish life: parish leaders are rediscovering the missionary heart of the Church and asking what renewal could look like in their own parish communities.Renewed & Sent is a gathering for priests and parish leaders who want to see what God is doing in other parishes and discern what it could mean for their own.
Hosted by Divine Renovation in partnership with the Diocese of Wollongong, this three-day summit offers space to see real-life stories of renewal, pray together, and be encouraged to lead parishes from maintenance to mission. Come and join Bishop Brian Mascord, Fr. James Mallon, and other movement leaders in this national gathering of priests and lay leaders on fire for mission and evangelization.
