Focus on Welcome and
Inclusion Project
(of the Archdiocese of Brisbane, Australia)
Following on from a 2003 Synod
priority that parishes are experienced as
welcoming and inclusive communities, the Ministry and
Community Life team of Faith and Life in the Archdiocese of Brisbane has developed a project to support
deaneries and parishes to examine inclusive practices and develop
strategies in this area. One
of the resources to support this project is a new website www.bne.catholic.net.au/fwi
The site was launched at the Parish Pastoral Councils Chairpersons
day,
February 24, 2007.
