ASSOCIATES

Associates of the Community are women and men, lay and ordained, who are active members of a Christian parish, have had some prior contact with us, and seek to deepen their life in Christ through a closer association with the life and ministry of the Sisters. 

Associates keep a simple Rule of Life which includes praying for the Community and, where possible, assisting in practical ways. There is a probationary period followed by a Service of Admission, usually held in the Spirituality Centre Chapel.

The Community supports Associates through prayer and fellowship and a regular program of speakers, Quiet Days and an annual retreat. 

Priest Associates also have a Rule of Life which includes an undertaking  to make the Community known and to encourage interest in the religious life.

To find out more, please contact on weekdays, 9.30am-4.30pm, Sister Avrill on 03 9583 2087.
