broadstairs.jpg It seems to me that there is no better place to begin an account of a Tertianship programme than to quote from Mary Wright’s introduction to the Handbook on this stage of formation in the Institute:

“Tertianship is a ‘school of the heart’ which comes to our members at that time in their lives when perhaps it is most needed, when ministry challenges and demands can overwhelm the spirit and when the clear sight of ‘the one thing necessary’ might be obscured by the clutter and baggage which we have collected over the years.  The time of Tertianhsip is a precious gift, a time of deepening insight into our own lives and the life of the Institute.  It brings healing and reconciliation and strengthens bonds with the world wide Institute.”

earth_hour_o82.jpgJoin the World and Celebrate Earth Hour. At 8 p.m. on March 29, the world will turn off its lights for just one hour – Earth Hour – to show it’s possible to take action on climate change. Switching off your lights is just one simple action that you can take to help make a difference and it sends a powerful message that we care about our planet. Last year, WWF-Australia pioneered Earth Hour and it was a huge success! Almost 2.3 million Sydneysiders participated – including more than 2,100 businesses – resulting in a 10 per cent reduction on the electrical grid, saving 25,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide - the equivalent of taking about 50,000 cars off the road for an hour.
