Ancient Futures: the Renewal of Religious Life in the Australian Church
The Australian Centre for Christianity and Culture (ACC&C) in Canberra cordially invite you to attend this 3-day ecumenical event. Share your wisdom and experience of community life and to join with them in prayerfully discerning the future to which the Holy Spirit is calling us.
"Ancient Futures" will bring together representatives from a wide range of traditional, new and emerging Christian communities across Australia, in order to:
- Reflect on the distinctive role played by religious communities during the first two centuries of Christianity in Australia
- Assess the history of new communities in Australia over the past 50 years: founding charisms, missions, relationships with church hierarchies, sustainability over time
- Consider how God may be calling 21st century Australians to various forms of religious and community life, and what ecclesial conditions (e.g. vision-casting, theology, resourcing, oversight, ecumenical collaboration) are now required to enable what the Holy Spirit is doing.
