 "God’s Gift of Life and Love"

This pastoral letter was approved by the Australian Catholic Bishops Conference.  The letter, sets out in a beautiful and pastoral way the Church’s teaching on Catholic married love and planning for families.  It is a way of marking the 40th anniversary of the encyclical “Humanae Vitae”, on which its teaching is based.
