Prayer – Breathe in Me O Holy Spirit

The “Conversations about Catholics” programme was set up in St Mary’s Parish in Mudgee NSW in 1998 to provide a link with the communities of the local Catholic Parish, School and family. The program has been designed to assist parents with their own questions and uncertainties about Church, and in turn encourage and empower them

In the 2016 Census we discovered that the fastest growing ‘belief’ in Australia was non-belief, that is, those who identified as having no religion. While this cohort has increased, those identifying as Catholic decreased and those who practice their faith decreased even further. So how can a local Catholic Parish or Community turn the tide.
