Year of Grace

A Year of Grace is the Australian bishops' gift to the Church to celebrate and renew our faith and life as Catholics. It began at Pentecost 2012 and is an exhortation from the bishops of Australia to "Start afresh from Christ."

The Year of Grace has been like a seed, being watered gently and growing with tender care. It comes from the bishops' reflection over a number of years on the Apostolic letter Novo Millennio Ineunte (at the start of the new millennium).

This letter recalls the events in Rome during the Jubilee year of 2000 and the Pope's challenge to the whole Church to "contemplate the face of Christ."

I warmly welcome you to explore the Year of Grace website site and hope that it will be a space of prayer; a place to seek resources and a place of information. http://www.yearofgrace.catholic.org.au/
