Since its arrival in 2011, the Cardinal George Pell has sought to recover the original vision of Bishop Polding and architect Wardell and has supported the restoration, cleaning and conservation of both the exterior and interior of St Mary's Cathedral in Sydney (Australia), restoring the church to its former grandeur.

Eight saints occupy the spaces of one of the lateral altarpieces in the cathedral of St. Mary's in Sydney, AustraliaSt. Catherine of Siena, St. Maria Goretti, St. Teresa of Avila, Mother Teresa of Calcutta, St. Hildegard von Bingen, St. Mary of the Way, St. Monica and St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross, also known as Edith Stein.
