Today is a proud day for Australian Catholics. One of our own has been recognised as a saint. Even if you aren’t into the whole "saint" thing, and I know some simply don’t believe in God, while others accuse Catholics of idolatory (Don’t call me an idolater! – joke), but Mary MacKillop was an extraordinary woman, who lived her ideals by living with and serving the poor. She was ahead of her time in so many ways. And if nothing else, her’s is a life worth remembering and celebrating for her actions alone.
