FAN THE FLAME Towards Plenary Assembly One

A national prayer campaign is running from Pentecost until the first assembly of the Plenary Council, inviting people to become “prayer partners” for the Council journey and especially for the assemblies – the first of which opens on October 3, 2021.

The “Fan the Flame” resources have been designed so they can be used by individuals or by groups of any size and in any setting. They include material for each week, and as well as material that can be used at any time to support prayerful preparation for the Plenary Council.

Fan the Flame Resources

We are a community of communities from the Murray to the sea.
Inspired by the Gospel and nourished by the Eucharist, we follow the example of Jesus and the guidance of the Holy Spirit, reaching out in joyful and humble service, caring for all of God’s creation, growing in love day by day and looking forward to life with God forever.

Diocesan Vision Statement

In the spirit of reconciliation, we acknowledge the traditional custodians of the lands in which the Diocese of Ballarat sits. We would like to pay our respects to Aboriginal Elders past, present and future. Their wisdom can help us care for the earth, our common home.
