WE ARE AN INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S MOVEMENT WORKING TOGETHER TO TRANSFORM OUR WORLD INTO A PLACE OF PEACE AND JUSTICE.
Who we are, what we do & why we do what we do
Elizabeth’s Story
Liz is married with three adult children and two grandchildren. While Catholic in her DNA, Liz is much more than her DNA. She is a member of the Grail, a member at
Pitt St Uniting Church and a Spiritual Director with a passion for listening “among the fringes.” Liz is involved in weekend breakfasts for those living with homelessness, and follows this once a month with Food for the Soul at St Pats – an hour for reflective, contemplative circle sharing.
More Nour’s Story
Nour is a practicing physio who is passionate about health and living life to the full. Her childhood background in Lebanon during the war has made her
keenly aware of injustice in the world hence her attraction to the Grail which she sees as a haven of peace and deep listening and center for social justice action. She is co-ordinating the Australian Grail Fistula Project with a Masai community in Tanzania.
More Tricia’s Story
Tricia is a wife, mother and grandmother and mostly retired from teaching Latin and French. In the Grail she serves on the National Team, leads the International
Spirituality Network, runs regular reflection mornings and belongs to the working group for Australian Women Preach, a joint Grail/WATAC project. She has various ministries in the Catholic church, where, inspired by Pope Francis, she particularly hopes to engage others in lifestyle conversion to cherish and care for our mother earth.
