In March 2027, we will be commemorating the sesqui-centenary of the death of Australia's pioneering bishop, John Bede Polding OSB.
The Archbishop died on 16th March 1877 and is now buried in the crypt of Saint Mary's Cathedral with other pioneer priests and Sydney Archbishops.
During the course of the next twelve months, we will be publishing material on this website and elsewhere to help people learn more about the holy life and teaching of Archbishop Polding. Please follow this page or visit our Facebook page.
Would you help us by sharing this post please?
A prayer card has been in circulation for a number of years and is still being distributed to parishes around Sydney and beyond.
