Welcome to our website....

Let it be both an entrée into our community and an ongoing source of information about how we try to live out our vision which is “To Follow The Example Of Jesus By Serving Others.” – I hope you accept that that’s a goal and not a boast about where we are now!

I want to give you a bit more of a welcome than this so, if you’d like more… click here.

WORLD DAY OF PRAYER FOR CONSECRATED LIFE - February 2, 2023 (Celebrated in Parishes February 4-5)
In 1997, Pope Saint John Paul II instituted a day of prayer for women and men in consecrated life. This celebration is attached to the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord on February 2nd. This Feast is also known as Candlemas Day; the day on which candles are blessed symbolizing Christ who is the light of the world. So too, those in consecrated life are called to reflect the light of Jesus Christ to all peoples. The celebration of World Day for Consecrated Life is transferred to the following Sunday in order to highlight the gift of consecrated persons for the whole Church.

LENTEN DISCUSSION GROUPS
This year our parish will offer Lenten Discussion Groups on Mondays and Fridays following morning Mass and Monday evenings via Zoom. The Zoom sessions are an opportunity for families to pray and reflect together. If your child/ren have received the sacraments of Communion and Confirmation, this Lenten program would be a perfect opportunity to further explore as a family, the opportunities we have to live our lives in light of Catholic teachings. We will draw inspiration from the text from Ashes to Hope and the input and discussions will be age appropriate.

The daily reflections will invite the reader to contemplate a verse from the Scripture reading of the day. This reflection will be followed by a quote (usually by Pope Francis) and a simple prayer.  The daily reflections will only require a few minutes for an individual to read, reflect and pray on.

This Lenten practice will lead the reader into a deeper reflection on their daily life. We take time to ‘look to Jesus’ – in our families, workplaces and the community – we will walk as ‘missionary disciples’ on the path to Easter, and beyond.

Discussion groups will commence Monday 20th February. Ash Wednesday is 22nd February.
