MSC Good News – new venue for Heart of Life: Kildara Centre, Malvern

Following several meetings between the Brigidine Victorian Community Office, the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart, and the Heart of Life Centre for Spiritual and Pastoral Formation, an agreement was reached for Heart of Life to lease the Kildara Centre, a free-standing, two-storey building in Malvern, which is in the heart of Melbourne, for a period of 5 years.

The Brigidine Victorian Community Leader, Sr. Anne Hill csb, members of the Brigidine Council and Brigidine finance and property managers  met with Provincial, Fr Chris McPhee msc, the Director of Heart of Life, Paul Beirne, and Heart of Life’s Business Manager, Cecilia Rogers, to discuss Heart of Life’s use and occupation of the Centre from January 2021 to December 2025 (initially).

This is a very exciting development for Heart of Life, as it establishes the Centre for the foreseeable future in a holy and sacred environment with the additional gift of an ideal location close to the crossroads of Glenferrie Road and High Street, and  excellent train, bus and tram connections.

We are very blessed indeed and we thank the Brigidines for this opportunity of a spiritual connection where hearts meet each other through this partnership of utilising the gifts of two religious traditions.

We look forward now with great hope and thank all those involved with this new and exciting relationship – thank you!
