WELCOME TO ST JOHN’S ANGLICAN CATHEDRAL, BRISBANE
St John’s Cathedral is home to a community which seeks to bring the best of Anglican tradition into dialogue with the issues and needs of our day.
We strive for open-minded conversation, seek to practice inclusion, and reflect on how we might see our beliefs put into action. We want this to be a place where people are encouraged to seek God and progress their own spiritual journeys.
The Cathedral itself, a renowned Brisbane landmark, serves as a magnet, where diverse people gather to worship, celebrate, seek solace, converse and learn.
Peace,
Peter Catt +
Dean of Brisbane

OUTREACH – MAY 2019
TRINITY CENTRE PANTRY
Trinity Centre Pantry offers hope when food is out of reach
“I was hungry and you gave me food,
thirsty and you gave me something to drink,
I was a stranger and you welcomed me.”
– Matthew 25.35
The Trinity Centre Pantry at Holy Trinity Anglican Church, Fortitude Valley was established over 30 years ago to provide assistance to those for whom life was proving a struggle; those who simply didn’t have enough to eat, or who had met with some temporary crisis and had no funds.
The Pantry is staffed entirely by volunteers and is open Tuesday to Friday, except public holidays, from 12 noon to 3.00pm.
People who are in need because of some crisis or hard times don’t have to make an appointment: they just come in during the opening hours and bring identification.
In addition, some financial emergency relief is also available during opening hours each Thursday: limited assistance can be provided towards the payment of bills (e.g. utilities, including electricity, gas, water, phone), rent, and PBS prescriptions.
More recently, the Pantry is becoming increasingly involved in facilitating referrals to various sources of support that are available from other community services.
Can we give at least $1,000 to help the Trinity Centre Pantry this winter?

OUR PLACE IN HISTORY:
THE DEANERY’S HERITAGE APPEAL
The National Trust of Australia (Queensland) has listed The Deanery (Adelaide House) – the first Government House when Queensland was created on 10th December 1859. The balcony on which Sir George Bowen read the proclamation that day is in need of a great deal of work to restore it to a stable and safe condition. This means that in the Trust’s view it is essential to Australia’s heritage and must be preserved.
Donations to the National Trust of Australia (Queensland) for this appeal are allowable as deductions for tax purposes.
Find out more on our DEANERY APPEAL page.
