Australia
The Grail has been present in Australia since 1936. The National Grail Centre is located in Sydney. There are active Regional Groups in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and North Queensland. We are diverse in age and background, with a broad range of skills and talents. We address numerous concerns, including justice, poverty, migrants and refugees, ecumenical and interfaith relations, and ecological issues. We also promote spirituality and prayer, as a community, through seasonal programs and retreats.
