The Year of Grace, an initiative of the Australian Bishops, will run from Pentecost 2012 to Pentecost 2013 - a summons to the whole Australian Church to undertake a spiritual journey, a time of listening and prayer, a fresh encounter with Jesus.
In his address to Pope Benedict XVI during the recent visit of the Australian Bishops to Rome, Archbishop Wilson described the Year of Grace as follows: 'In the attempt to "start afresh from Christ" (Novo Millennio Ineunte, III), in the communion which is in Jesus, we have decided to call the whole Church in Australia to celebrate A Year of Grace from Pentecost 2012 to Pentecost 2013. Through this time we will seek to contemplate the face of Jesus and to listen to his voice at a new depth, in the belief that only he can lead us into the future, that only he can make us one in faith, in hope, in love. Through this year, we will implore a new sending of the Holy Spirit, who alone can breathe new life into the Church.'
