Safeguarding Sunday – 10th September

St Peter Julian’s Church and the Blessed Sacrament Congregation in Australia are committed to the care, wellbeing and protection of children, young people and people at risk in our community.

As we mark Safeguarding Sunday, we pray for those who have been abused, their families and supporters. We recognise and apologise for the harm done by priests, religious and lay people in Church settings. Rebuilding trust and confidence in the Church requires constant work and vigilance. We recommit to cultural change that will help the Church be a place that builds and supports safe communities for all people.
