Introduction

The Church's liturgy and a personal relationship with God through prayer and reflection sustained and motivated the lives of Blessed Mary MacKillop and Fr Julian Tenison Woods.  Our Josephite Constitutions remind us that 'God's compassionate love for his people, the Eucharist as source and summit, and the Mystery of the Cross provide for us as they did for Mary MacKillop, a context for our service of others.' (No 5)

The rich Liturgy of the Church is the source and summit of our Christian
