Welcome to the Parishes of Sydney Harbour North

Dear Jock,

We, the parish community of St Thérèse of the Child Jesus Church,
send to you our message of support.

You joined us as a little boy with your parents and little brother
and we watched you grow into a fine young man. We saw your qualities
of kindness and compassion develop and admired the way you reached out to
those around you, especially those in need.

In particular, we are proud of your sense of social justice, being amongst the first
to raise your voice in protest on the issue of children in detention.

Since hearing of your plight in early 2008 all the people of the parish communities
of Sydney Harbour North have prayed for your safety and well-being.
