Sychar House of Prayer and Spirituality is blessed and opened. Sychar was created to respond to a need for a diocesan space that would help people discover inner growth and spiritual nourishment. It is for those who seek to discover their authentic self and awaken to the Mystery of God in whom they live and move and have their being.

The creation of a spirituality centre is part of one of the Key Pastoral Directions in the Diocesan Pastoral Plan (2018). Sr Elaine Morzone was the prime motivator behind the creation of the spirituality centre along with a group of dedicated volunteers. Sr Elaine and the volunteers continue to be a part of Sychar.
