dadirri is a fifteen month national programme that will bring you together with others who wonder about life's meaning - and how spirituality, religion and being in a relationship with the earth community might help you to find meaning - and in turn be found by meaning.  dadirri is also an opportunity to deepen and explore how Edmund Rice's vision for a more just and meaningful world can continue to be realised in and through you.

The building of community and storytelling are the foundations of dadirri.   At each gathering you will explore, within a committed community, different aspects of stories that bring us together - the universe story, the Australian story, the Christ story, the story of Edmund and our own personal narrative.

You will be supported in various ways to practise dadirri. An opportunity to reach out to those around you who are in need will be created.  You will be given encouragement and practical assistance to develop an action-reflection-action rhythm to living  your life.

Your creativity is essential to dadirri. Prayer, sacred scriptures, journal writing, the creative arts, communing with nature and social action will be integral to dadirri.   A spiritual companion and a ministry mentor will journey alongside you.  The content and process associated with dadirri promises to be truly enlivening.
