| One of
the purposes of Conventions of this kind is to allow
the Holy Spirit in our midst to inspire us to a fuller
Christian life. It is a life which can give joy
and satisfaction in our professional endeavours, in
which we can find comfort and strength in its trials
and courage to speak when there is an occasion where
speech can be beneficial to our fellows.

Sir Gerard Brennan AC KBE

| The
concept of justice for indigenous people is so
multifaceted and huge that many of us could be
forgiven for giving up as it is just too hard.
Alternatively, others may leave the issue to
politicians or other leaders to work out. Either
of these responses however misses the real
point. At the end of the day it is how we
respond as individuals to the circumstances we find
ourselves in which shapes what occurs around us.
