CHURCH
Cath Connelly: Celtic Music: a Way of Building Bridges Between My Deep Yearnings and Everyday Life in Australia.
Celtic music arouses a most primal hunger and longing. The very sound of it can make us weep, laugh and rest deeply in our inner
being. Immersing us in the exquisite sounds of her Celtic harp, Cath Connelly will address such questions as ‘How might Celtic
music draw me closer into relationship with nature and the Divine?’, ‘How do I build bridges between my deep yearnings that Celtic
music evokes and my everyday life as an Australian?’ and ‘How might I use Celtic music in my personal reflection and prayer
time?’. What a treat!
RESOURCE ROOM
Fiona Pfennigwerth: Reflecting on Fiona’s Artwork.
Fiona’s workshop will be a space to contemplate the outback landscape paintings that are her reflection of John's Gospel; and
to converse with them and each other. It will also be a time to hear her journey from text to artwork; and a taste of
experiencing your own beginnings with a Psalm
