Ruth Harvey’s fourth postcard from the listening pilgrimage on Naarm, Wurundjeri and Boonwurrung Country (Melbourne), GunaiKurnai Country (Gippsland)

deep-dreaming-rest,
of reverie and revelation,
where pathways to peace may open wide,
and roads to reconciliation will unfold.’
Read Ruth’s third postcard from a Listening Pilgrimage.

‘Gather us in to listen deeply, share intently, understand so fully that our differences become starting points and our points of intersection become rivers of connection flowing more deeply than all that divides…’ Read Ruth’s reflection in full in the second postcard from a Listening Pilgrimage.

‘If day one was a day of opening our hearts to the pain of the past, day two was a moment of healing amongst friends and strangers. ‘ Ruth Harvey shares reflections from the first stage of the Listening Pilgrimage in the lands now called Australia.
