Sacrament of Confirmation Mass
Confirmation is a Sacrament of Initiation and renews the promises made at baptism. In Confirmation we recognise the gifts and fruits of the Holy Spirit and pray that we will always be open to the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
Congratulations to students from our parish who are receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation on Sunday:
Amelia Alchin, Tommy Anderson, Hamish Blampied, Edward Brown, Oliver Brown, Flynn Bryant, Scarlett Connellan, Jogele-An Dignan, Brydie Ford, Lachlan Foster, Liam Gaynor, Grace Kellahan, Sam Koop, Indi Loudon, Harry Morton, Chelsea Nielsen and Layla Player.
Thank you to the parents who participated in the program and to Mrs McGee, Mrs Cuthbertson and Father Dom for their generousity and dedication in preparing the children for this Sacrament.
Candidates may have themselves, their sponsor and two others attend the Mass this Sunday the 13th of September at 11am.
Please note that there will be the usual 9.30am Parish Mass on Sunday 13th September to adher to the COVID-19 restrictions.
Thank you for the love, trust and respect my mum and dad have given me to make me feel so good inside.
AMEN

Archbishop Christopher Prowse Visit
Archbishop Christopher Prowse is visiting our region on Wednesday.
He is visiting Lake Cargelligo in the morning and we expect him at St Mary's at around 2pm.
The Archbishop will speak to all students when he arrives and then will spend time with our Year 5/6 Confirmation students. This is a very special occasion for our students as they have the opportunity to talk to the Archbishop so close to their Confirmation day.
At 3.30pm he will move to the Parish Centre where parishioners are invited to have afternoon tea with him.
