Danald Cozzens

The National Council of Priests meet for their annual conference in Parramatta last week. Fr Donald Cozzens is the keynote speaker. The National Council of Priests is the organisation that represents the interests of the more pastoral and less ideological priests in this country. They're the ones more likely to be found listening to the concerns of the broader Catholic. Their publications tend to reflect the concerns found in the broader church. Priests from across the nation will be attending and you can find further details at: theswag.org.au/section/2010-national-convention/
