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 – SUMMER/JANUARY 2019
ACT FOR PEACE
EMERGENCY RESPONSE PROGRAM
When disaster strikes, or an emergency occurs, ACT FOR PEACE responds quickly to give people what they need most to survive – food, shelter, and medical care.
In countries prone to natural disasters like cyclones, floods and droughts, ACT FOR PEACE works with local partners to build skills among local communities to help them manage the disasters themselves.
Founded on the understanding that when people all over the world work together, big changes really are possible,
ACT FOR PEACE believes local people are the ones best-placed to identify the problems confronting their communities, and to find solutions that will work.
Among the greatest of current disasters is one which is not ‘natural’, but man-made. Currently, there are more refugees, asylum-seekers and displaced people worldwide than at any time since World War II — more than 65 million people have been forced to flee their homes to escape conflict and disaster.
It’s a terrible injustice, and one that might be overcome. It takes only a little over $200 to provide temporary shelter to a family, and a little over $100 to provide water and hygiene kits to prevent the spread of disease.
Can we give at least $1,000 to help the ACT FOR PEACE Emergency Response Program bring the immediate needs of food, medical care and shelter to those devastated by natural disaster; to teach people how to prepare for such events, and to advocate for justice and dignity among the displaced and needy peoples of the world?
