Donate and subscribe if you like the ‘South Sydney Herald’ as much as I do 

Do you like your South Sydney Herald (SSH) as much as I do? Do you have some spare cash to help the South Sydney Uniting Church pay for printing and distribution? The SSH has recently introduced a tiered subscription service and donations are available via the SSH website.

Do you know anyone who needs to know what’s going on in South Sydney? Why not gift them a subscription to the SSH for their birthday? Do you feel like being charitable? Why not gift the RPA Adult Mental Health Unit a one year subscription to the SSH? If you’re feeling particularly generous, why not give one to Caritas or St Vincent’s Hospital as well?

Subscriptions are available at here and all donations are gratefully accepted and are used to improve the paper and keep your local newspaper up and running!

Talk of sin can leave people demoralised rather than healed. In some church settings, sin has sounded like shame, illness, depravity or permanent failure. That can be spiritually damaging. It can make people feel trapped. But we still need a way to speak honestly about harm. Our world is wounded by...

Concerns over Australia’s response to pro-Palestinian activism as laws face scrutiny

From hate speech laws to anti-protest measures later ruled unconstitutional, the NSW government’s rushed legislative response following the Bondi tragedy has prompted severe concerns over its impact on protest rights and free speech.  In April, the New South Wales Court of Appeal (NSWCA) ruled that the anti-protest laws introduced by...

What prison has taught me

Prison is a “culture” that most people look down on because it lies beyond their experience and understanding. As a chaplain in a remand prison with men in maximum, minimum and protection classifications, I have come to understand and appreciate the humanity of those I see and speak with each...
