You can join the growing number of faith communities in Australia who are calling for an end to the global debt crisis.  The Jubilee campaign draws its inspiration from the Biblical tradition of a Jubilee Year, when those enslaved because of debts are freed, lands lost because of debt are returned, and community torn by inequality is restored (see Leviticus 25:10, Deuteronomy 15, Isaiah 61, Luke 4:18-19). This moral principle has important relevance in our world today. Debt should not be allowed to cascade down the generations, consigning people to ever deepening misery and despair, and debt repayment should never cost people the essentials of life.

What does it mean to be a Jubilee Congregation?

• Provide a contact person to facilitate education and action in your faith community
• Participate throughout the year in simple actions such as letter writing
• Raise a small financial contribution to support the mission of Jubilee Australia
• Pray for Jubilee justice for the world's poorest communities

As a valuable Jubilee Congregation you will receive our quarterly bulletins to keep you up-to-date with the international and national Jubilee campaign. We will also suggest simple actions your congregation can take to make a difference, such as writing letters to the government or fundraising within your congregation. 

2008 Action for Global Justice

Thank you to the many social justice groups, churches and individuals around Australia who sent back their signed inflatable globes to be part of the Week of Global Action Against Debt. On Monday 13 October, as part of Micah Challenge Voices for Justice, the globes were presented along with handwritten letters to members of the government and opposition. The colourful rally on the front lawn of Parliament House sent a message to our elected representatives inside — we care about Global Justice.
