Eco-spirituality online

Before leaving Sydney to take up an appointment on the formation staff of Marist College, Suva, Fiji, Fr Ben McKenna SM, launched a family-Marist group following the 'Thresholds of Transformation for Seekers and Searchers' (TTSS) program, an initiative of Emmaus Productions.

Fr Ben reports: 'We have just completed our second online meeting of a fifteen-week journey in eco-spirituality. We are four members of the McKenna family – Mary, Ben, Therese, and Tarquam; and three members of the Marist Family – Ben [again], Fr John Guo SM and Sr Catherine Jones SMSM. This digital journey explores our Christian journey in the context of the cosmic journey; an exploration in faith and science: searching to find and respond to how God is calling us forward to cooperate in bringing about God’s plan now and into the future.'

Emmaus Productions add: 'Our first nationwide group begins on Feb 24, every third Tuesday from 7pm - 9pm. There are still places available if anyone is interested. Go to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..'
