Fr Dom Murphy has recently finished 7 years work at the University of Sydney Chaplaincy and returned to his hometown of Melbourne. His honesty, approachability, kindness and sense of humour made him one of the most loved figures in the Sydney Catholic youth scene. He is also the vocation director for the Dominicans (Order of Preachers)
Life here…the only way I can describe it as an adventure, I didn’t expect it to be likethat. There’s never a dull moment and there’s always something new and unexpected… I continue to be surprised and encouraged by the absolutely vibrancy and life that is in this community”
27 year old Heather has just become a novice with the Benedictine nuns at Jamberoo. She is now ‘Madeleine’. Prior to that, Heather spent time as a team member on the youth mission team which assists youth in peer lead faith formation.
