Hello from Father Michael, Deacon Vince, Sister Kathleen and the Parish Office
We don't have to wait until we are perfect to bear witness to Jesus; our proclamation begins today, right where we live. And it does not begin by trying to convince others, but by witnessing every day to the beauty of the Love that has looked upon us and lifted us up.
Pope Francis, on Twitter
Vale Cardinal George Pell: we acknowledge his death and pray that this faithful servant who followed the Lord with perseverance during many trials may be received into the joy of heaven and receive the reward of eternal peace.
Are you visiting for the holidays?

Lenten Program 2023
Yes, even as the Magi return home the road to Easter is calling us!
This year, we will be using the Triumph programme created by the Diocese of Wollongong. The book costs $9 and is available using the Qkr! app.
If you prefer, please put the money and your name, a contact phone number and the parish church you wish to collect it from, in the collection bag at Mass on the weekend.
The cutoff date is 31 January so we can get the books delivered before Lent.
In your prayers ...
Please pray for all the faithful departed, and for peace in Ukraine and everywhere.
