Aunty Jean Phillips, in partnership with Common Grace, invites Australian Churches to hold services of acknowledgement, lament and prayer as we approached January 26th – a day of mourning for our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander brothers and sisters.

In January 2020, the #ChangeTheHeart Prayer Services will be guided by the theme "Truth Telling: the truth will set us free". Will you join us at a church service or host a service at your church?

Last year we hosted 17 services in every State and Territory in the two weeks leading up to January 26, with more than 2,000 people in attendance. These services were a beautiful opportunity for us to stand with our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander sisters and brothers, while learning more about the true history of January 26th.
