Churches Responding to Yoorrook: Can We handle the truth?

We invite you to join us for a special forum to explore the church's response to the Yoorrook recommendations.

Saturday 18 October 10.30am to 2.30pm.

Yoorrook has been a groundbreaking project in truth telling, with many First Nations people showing courage to share their truth.

It is now over to us, especially those in the Church. Will we have the courage to hear and respond to the truths revealed in Yoorrook?

Hear from a range of denominations about how they will respond, and learn how you can work within your church to create change.

This forum will have a special, but not exclusive, focus on recommendations 18 and 19 about land justice.

To help us into the conversation, we will be joined by Aunty Prof Anne Pattel -Gray

We will also participate in a communal liturgical response to Yoorook

Lunch provided, please let us know your dietry requirements, if any.
