Our chaplains work in the public hospitals in Western Sydney to provide emotional, spiritual and sacramental support to patients, their families and staff.
The experience of being in hospital can often mean being surrounded by illness, pain and despair. For patients and their families this can be a time of anxiety and stress. For others it is a time of spiritual questioning/connection.

Helping you through grief and loss
Helping you explore your spirituality
