Daughters of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart, 150 years, celebrating the APA Safeguarding Conference
Today, our APA Safeguarding Conference officially ended.
We began the day with a Eucharist hosted by Indonesia and celebrated by Fr. Kimi MSC.
During the Eucharist, Sr. Philippa announced that the next APA Conference will be held in 2026 in Indonesia and handed the APA candle to the Indonesian Province.
Following the Eucharist, the APA participants gathered for a final reflection and the official signing of our APA Safeguarding Commitment Statement, which was handed to Sr. Margaret Bob, the Secretary of the Congregation, to be taken to our Congregational Leader in Rome for endorsement.
Our APA Safeguarding Conference has been a truly fruitful time, during which hearts and minds were opened to deepen our commitment to safeguarding. Our APA participants will now enjoy some leisure time in Sydney before departing for their home countries.
