I never expected anything in return for serving God's people. Yet in my retirement I have discovered once again that the Church truly is a family. Thank you for remembering us.
— RETIRED PRIEST OF BROKEN BAY
“Oh, how great is the priest!
With faith, we see God hidden in the priest like a light behind glass, like wine mixed with water.”
ST JOHN MARIE VIANNEY
Returning the care we received
For decades, our priests have faithfully walked beside us through life’s most important moments. They have celebrated the sacraments, offered spiritual guidance, comforted us in times of sorrow, and shared in our joys.
Although retired from active parish ministry, many continue to serve whenever they are able. Their vocation as priests is a lifelong calling, and their commitment to God’s people never truly ends.
Today, it is our turn to care for them.
Your gift to the St Joseph’s Appeal helps provide accommodation, healthcare and personalised support, ensuring our retired priests can live with dignity, comfort and peace in their retirement.
Thank you for your prayerful generosity. Together, we can return the care they have so faithfully given to us.
