She said priesthood was an idea that she shied away from, but knew it was the right step for her to take. “I come to the region after three years in Buderim with mentors that helped me develop my love of the arts as spiritual practice, and a fantastic parish that encouraged me to engage in greater community conversations, justice work and develop different ways to encounter ideas of faith,” she said. “St Anne’s in Highfields and St James in Toowoomba offer some beautiful opportunities to gather and I’m excited to join in the way this parish explores how we live in the world. “Outside church life I love to grow vegetables, go walking with my camera, spend time under the stars, and, of course, visiting my young adult children.” “I’ve never spent time in the Darling Downs region before so there is much for me to discover here, along with the musical culture of this place that I hope I’m able to join from time to time.” - Jack Waters reporting.
