The COVID-19 pandemic is affecting the mental health of many members of our parishes, schools and communities. Understanding mental health will help us to be aware of those who need our support.
In the Social Justice Statement 2020-21, To Live Life to the Full: Mental health in Australia today, the Bishops invite us all to reject stigmatisation, as this is not the way of Jesus. Let us follow him in drawing near to those who are experiencing mental ill-health and acknowledge that they are members of the Body of Christ -‘they’ are part of ‘us’!
