In my work everyday as a retired 73 year old I am invigorated by those dedicated religious sisters and laity who are in their 7th 8th and 9th decades fighting and advocating in the front trenches on First Nations Reconciation , Homelessness, Slavery and Expolitation in Australia. Ecological renewal , renewing cities for people rather than the other way around , renewing regional life , rediscovering the true gift of family, putting a roof over everyone’s head , decent jobs and conditions as a vocation and use of gifts etc which was the ideal and mission Jesus set us to do not the academic and power pursuits irrelevant to building God’s kin – dom on Earth as it is in heaven.
