Celebrating Mary MacKillop

on
Today we celebrate Mary MacKillop, Australia's global saint. This day falls during Queensland Multicultural Month and her community continue to honour her legacy to diversity:


The image is a favourite of mine by Luke Roberts In 1995 his painting of Mother Mary MacKillop was a prizewinner in the exhibition Mother Mary: A Tribute at the Powerhouse Museum Sydney. This exhibition was visited by John Paul II as part of the celebrations around the beatification of Mother Mary MacKillop.

St. Mary Mackillop quotes said…
Thank you for this valuable information. I too want people to read my article about Mother Mary Mackillop. I mentioned some of her quotes, interesting facts about her, her invention, struggle on early days, life changing moments, and her contribution towards the poor children who couldn't get education.
