The 2022 venue

St Joseph’s Spirituality & Education Centre

on the Mary MacKillop Peninsula · 8 Humphreys Road, Kincumber South, NSW 2251

The 2022 Conference was held at St Joseph’s, in a natural bushland setting in a quiet corner of the Central Coast of NSW, its spacious grounds running down to the Kincumber Broadwater.

The gardens held a labyrinth, walking tracks and many quiet spaces to sit and contemplate in nature. Earlier Conferences were held in Sydney, the first at the Baden-Powell Centre in Pennant Hills, beside Lane Cove National Park.
