From Australia-Anglican churches across Canberra and Goulburn will hold special services this weekend that include an apology to victims of abuse by the church.
Bishop Stuart Robinson publicly apologised to abuse victims last year, but said the apology would be read out at all church services this weekend.
Bishop Robinson said "Lamentation Sunday" would recognise the pain caused by church action and inaction on abuse.
"We as a church over the last 30 to 40 years haven't always treated people in a Christ-honouring way," he said.
