Join us for a global Vigil to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Mary’s canonisation.

The Sisters of Saint Joseph of the Sacred Heart invite you to join us for a global Vigil of deep peace, prayer and reflection to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Saint Mary MacKillop’s canonisation.

This Vigil invites us to come to peace and prayer and wrap our world in courage, that same courage from which Saint Mary MacKillop lived her life. Together let us ‘Take Fresh Courage’ for ourselves and for our world.

You may pray this Vigil alone; in a face-to-face group or perhaps join the online Guided Reflection.

The Sisters of Saint Joseph will be providing a scripted video resource that you can use for the online Guided Reflection, which is something that can be played at any time. The script for Courage Hour is also available in the Encountering St Mary MacKillop in Prayer booklet starting at page 26 available in English, Spanish and Italian on the webpage below.

Please note, the online Guided Reflection is not live and does not require you to register.

This Vigil will take place on Friday 16 October at 8:00pm your local time.
