Sacrament Confirmation
After learning about the Pentecost story, the gifts of the Holy Spirit and the Sacrament of Baptism, the candidates are well prepared to receive the Holy Spirit in the Sacrament of Confirmation commencing next week on Monday, Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday from 5:30pm at St Agnes's Church.
Sacrament of Confirmation Presentation Mass:
The candidates will have their photos displayed through this weekend’s Parish Masses and ‘Pray for Me’ cards will be distributed to parishioners as we continue to pray for the candidates.
Sacrament of Confirmation Workshops:
Candidates, parents and carers participated in our Confirmation Workshops run over the last week. They were lovely nights of reflection and activities all about Confirmation and the Holy Spirit in our lives.
St Joseph’s Winter Appeal
The Mini Vinnies Team are running our St Joey’s Winter Appeal. We are collecting warm clothes and blankets for those in need. Students can donate scarfs, beanies, jumpers or blankets by bringing them to school. This appeal will run until the end of Winter (August). We hope we can help our local charities such as St Vincent De Paul who take our donations to the people who need it. Many thanks in advance for your support.
