Ministry Areas
In Australia the mission of the Blessed Sacrament Congregation is focussed on two city-centre churches: St Francis’ in Melbourne and St Peter Julian’s in Sydney. The principal ministries we engage in are:
- the celebration of Eucharist at convenient times for city workers and visitors
- the sacrament of penance or reconciliation
- pastoral counselling and spiritual direction
- chaplaincy to overseas-born tertiary students and ethnic communities
- faith formation programmes leading to baptism, confirmation and eucharist
- hospitality to priests.
In addition we have religious who offer eucharistic catechesis in parishes or who teach in the field of liturgy in theological colleges.
