Our weariness is precious in the eyes of Jesus who embraces us and lifts us up.
Pope Francis
“Come to me, all who labour and are overburdened, and I will give you rest”
(Mt 11:28)

The Priests Retirement Foundation was established in 1990 and contributes to the ongoing
care of retired clergy across the Archdiocese of Melbourne. This includes, but is not limited to,
the provision of suitable accommodation and health care and medical out of pocket expenses.
‘We spent our lives trying to do things for other people
and now we need a bit of assistance ourselves.
And the Foundation helps us enormously.’Fr Ted Teal, retired clergy
Within the Archdiocese, there are two purpose-built retirement homes:
Justin Villa in North Balwyn, and George Maher House in Clifton Hill.
Clergy may also choose to live privately in their own house (often inherited) or a house or unit where the rental is funded by the Foundation. The physical and mental wellbeing of all retired clergy is continually overseen by three highly qualified nurses also funded by the Foundation.
