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 – SEPTEMBER 2018
GAR’BAN’DJEE’LUM NETWORK and INDIGILEZ WOMEN’S LEADERSHIP GROUP Suicide Prevention Program
The Gar’ban’djee’lum network and IndigiLez Women’s Leadership Group are working in partnership to develop and deliver a community-led, culturally-relevant suicide prevention awareness campaign for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, including LGBTIQ+ Sistergirl and Brotherboys within Brisbane North Primary Health Network (PHN) catchment.
By encouraging community members to (safely) talk about suicide/suicide ideation, the project will increase awareness of the risk factors and warning signs of suicide. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander LGBTIQ+ Sistergirl and Brotherboy participants engaging in the trial are able to access trauma informed psychological support and cultural healing.
In alignment with the suicide prevention trial, our giving would support a cultural healing retreat with various members from the Quandamooka community who are assisting with the delivery of the suicide prevention program. These retreats build participant confidence and support them to make informed, positive decisions regarding their health and wellbeing.
Our donations, no matter how big or small, will make a difference in so many ways. Can we give at least $1,000 to help the Suicide Prevention Program?
September Outreach envelopes are available at the Outreach Boards in the Narthex and
St Martin’s House.
