Unley Allies with First Nations People invite you to join them for the
Unley 2026 National Reconciliation Breakfast.

When: Wednesday 27 May, 6:30am for 7:00am start
Where: Living Choice, 123 Fisher Street, Highgate

We will be livestreaming the highly popular Reconciliation SA National Reconciliation Week Breakfast in a more intimate setting (ten tables of eight guests each) and at a more readily accessible venue.

Purchase a ticket and pre-order your light breakfast at:
https://actionnetwork.org/ticketed_events/unley-national-reconciliation-week-breakfast?source=direct_link&&link_id=0&can_id=072d73d896d93c120483cea595f87235&email_referrer=email_3222336&email_subject=your-special-invitation-unley-allies-breakfast&

Your purchase of a ticket for $50 covers the cost of the venue and breakfast. We are not undertaking this as a fundraiser. Our interest is in extending participation as broadly as possible.

Please only buy one ticket with each booking as we need each breakfast order as part of purchasing your individual ticket. 50 tickets have been released and 18 have been purchased already. Our maximum capacity is 80 people.

If you would like to sit at the same table with family, friends or colleagues, just nominate a table name in your booking and ask others to nominate the same table name. We will make sure you get to sit together. This is an opportunity to invite others to take a first or further step in walking with First Nations Peoples.

Next week 16-22 March is Harmony Week, incorporating the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination on 21 March. Congregations across our Synod are invited to pray, reflect and take action for racial justice.

Mission Resourcing has compiled a comprehensive list of anti-racism resources for further reflection and study, which can be found here: https://unitingchurchsa-my.sharepoint.com/:w:/g/personal/cconway_sa_uca_org_au/IQBnXWLOF2ykTqa3bxiSSkBiAUxV4TqStqTIKBaw16h20Q8?rtime=fxdrU8d_3kg

Sunday March 8 is International Women's Day, a day to celebrate women's achievement, raise awareness about discrimination and take action to forge gender equality.

This year's theme is Give to Gain, enabling us to focus on generosity, collaboration and shared progress. "Giving is not a loss – it is intentional multiplication. When women have access to health and rights, the benefits extend far beyond individuals, families are healthier, health systems are stronger, economies grow and societies become more just and sustainable." - International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics.
