No images? Click here It's Foster Care Week so we're sharing Amy's story. Three years ago she became a carer with CatholicCare and it's brought so much colour and love to her life. In Faith Matters, Rose McAllister reflects on Trinitarian Ecology and the work of the late Denis Edwards, one of Australia’s expert theologians who engaged in the dialogue between science and religion.
