MacKillop
First coin in the Inspirational Australians' coin series which features the Australian people's saint, Blessed Mary MacKillop.
The Inspirational Australian coin series recognises and celebrates individual achievements and commemorates unique Australians who have made an extraordinary contribution to society.
Mary MacKillop, born in Victoria 1842, was a teacher and Catholic nun. Mary founded the Order of the Sisters of St Joseph and set up a parish school for underprivileged children in South Australia. This was the first religious order to be founded by an Australian. Under Mary's guidance, the order established schools and charitable institutions across Australia and was devoted to the care of orphans, neglected children, the homeless, sick and aged.
In 1995, Mary MacKillop was beatified by Pope John Paul II. The process which could lead to her canonisation is underway. It is hoped she will be declared Saint Mary MacKillop.
