EASTER ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF COUNTRY
Co-developed with Rev Ellie Elia
——-
Earth and stars, waters and breeze
In this place, the place of the Dharug and Gundungurra peoples, we celebrate the connection between
embodied life and spiritual fulfilment.
As Easter people, we look upon the hills and valleys,
we see the love poured out upon this Land
by those who have cared for this place
since time beyond measure.
As Easter people we honour the story
of life, death and resurrection of the first peoples
who long to honour the stories of dreaming.
We bring ourselves respectfully to the traditional peoples of this land, praying in wonder and hope,
that restoration and resurrection
will become the reality of heaven in this place.
May Christ’s way of reconciliation and peace
show us how to walk gently upon this land
and with one another.
