Formation
Walking in faith and hope
How the festival sits in a wider spiritual arc for our communities — and toward the Eucharistic Congress horizon.
Phase 1
Rooted in faith
“We are as strong as our faith.” Our roots are in Fiji; faith has crossed oceans and deepened in Australia and New Zealand. Before we gather, we return to who we are and where we come from.
Phase 2
Gather in hope
“We are as young as our hope.” One table, one Eucharist, one community — from Fiji, Auckland, Sydney, and beyond. The festival is the gathering; the altar is the summit.
Phase 3
Christ in the world
Faith and hope made visible in love. What we receive at Mass we carry home to every parish and family. The mission continues after the last song.
Toward the Eucharistic Congress
Planning documentation names Sydney 2028 as a spiritual horizon for this community. TTFOH 2026 is described as an early step of preparation — not a deadline, but a beginning of walking together toward that wider gathering of the Church.
