FIAT — "Let it be done to me according to your word." (Luke 1:38)
When the angel came to Mary, everything waited on her answer. Her fiat — her "yes" — is where the whole Christian life begins: before anything is asked of us, God asks for our consent. FIAT 2026 follows that single word outward, from her surrender at the Annunciation, to her haste to carry Christ to Elizabeth at the Visitation, to the Magnificat — and finally to our own yes.
Headlining all three days in his final Australian Tour is Tim Staples, Senior Apologist at Catholic Answers (San Diego), on what we understand to be his final Australian tour — joined by Fr Christian Irdi, Deacon Aaron Peters, Fr Mark Payton, and a special Saturday session with a speaker to be revealed.
"She went in haste." (Luke 1:39)
