Courage! … Do not be afraid. (Matthew 14:27)

The Archbishop’s Campaign helps to bring the mission of the Church alive in our community.

It does this by supporting the works of the Priest Retirement Foundation, the Corpus Christi College Building Fund, the CatholicCare Victoria Chaplaincy Program, Melbourne Overseas Mission, John Pierce Centre, the University of Divinity for the Catholic Theological College and grants to Catholic agencies and community service organisations.

‘Courage! … do not be afraid.’ (Matthew 14:27)

In these words, Jesus invites us to move forward with confidence, knowing that He walks with us. By supporting this campaign, you help sustain ministries that accompany those in need, strengthen our parish communities, and bring Christ’s love to others. Thank you for answering this call with courage and generosity.
