In a spirit of anticipation and celebration, staff, friends and member representatives of Catholic Social Services Victoria recently gathered for the 2021 Commissioning Mass and annual general meeting. It has been more than 12 months since CSSV has hosted an 'in-person' event, given the onset of COVID-19 restrictions soon after the national Catholic social services conference held in Melbourne last February.
Significantly, Australian parishes make available a range of social service activities providing for those in need. In some ways, they can rach out to sections of the community that professional service agencies cannot. Services provided by parishes usually have a strong personal focus on those being served. The key role of parishes as centres of Catholic social services will be focus of the forthcoming Catholic Social Services conference.
