The Wellspring Community is an Australia wide Christian inclusive community

We aim to create a space where spirituality and justice, meet to deepen our relationship with God, to care for the earth, to foster the growth of an Australian spirituality and practise peace including working for a just relationship between First Nations communities and others.

Inspired by the Iona Community known world-wide for its radical Christianity, poetic Celtic worship and engagement with local and global issues, the Wellspring Community was founded in 1992.

Members and friends support each other as we actively work for

The Wellspring Community of Australia: An Introduction

We have just published a 16 page booklet that provides lots of information about the Wellspring Community including our history, ethos and areas of concern. The booklet is free to download here.

The Wellspring Community acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the over 300 nations of Aboriginal peoples across these lands now called Australia. We pay our respects to the Elders past, present, and future. We declare that sovereignty has never been ceded.   

We support the Uluru Statement from the Heart, and its three central calls of Voice, Treaty, and Truth and acknowledge it as a foundational document for justice for First Nations peoples in these lands. We acknowledge that the continuation of the cultural, spiritual and educational practices of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are an essential part of the culture and soul of this nation.
