Room at the Inn

Below is an excerpt from today's parish newsletter.

It describes activity in our parish in support of refugees. It's been going on - fuss-free and largely unnoticed for more than a decade.

I'm posting it in the hope that what is reality in rural and regional Queensland will perhaps be considered in light of the fear and bigotry that too often passes for comment on this issue.

Remember - Toowoomba is a very conservative community.

For what it's worth, I've been a member of the Social Justice Committee for a long time. They're a great bunch of people.
