Bishops take their message to the top

 


Three Australian Catholic bishops climbed the Sydney Harbour Bridge last Friday to raise awareness of Catholic Earthcare Australia, the Church’s new environmental initiative.

Archbishop John Bathersby of Brisbane, chair of the Bishops’ Committee for Justice, Development Ecology and Peace, led Bishop William Morris of Toowoomba and Bishop Christopher Saunders of Broome in the climb over Sydney’s main arch.

The climb was aimed at publicising the official launch of Catholic Earthcare Australia and to draw attention to the issue of environmental destruction.
