Beginning of School Liturgy & Induction of Leaders 

    “Blessings of Hope for 2022”

All students from Kindergarten to Year 6 will be involved in a Whole School Liturgy via Zoom on Friday 25th February at 9:30am. The zoom will be led by Father Ken and the Inspired By Christ Team at our outdoor prayer space. In light of the current restrictions we invite the Parents of Year 6 students only to attend this Liturgy. Father Ken will bless the Year 6 students and present them with their badges.

Ash Wednesday - Classroom Liturgies 

Ash Wednesday is next week and marks the beginning of the season of Lent. On Wednesday 2nd March at 9:15 am, representatives from the Year 6 Inspired By Christ Team will attend the Ash Wednesday Mass in our Parish Church with Father Ken . After Mass, the Year Six students will visit each of the classrooms (K-5) and hold an Ash Wednesday prayer service. All children will receive a cross of ashes on their foreheads as an outward reminder that we need to be ‘True to Jesus’. During Lent, our loving God takes us by the hand and asks us to walk closely with Him. It is through the love of God and love of each other that we learn to become more like Jesus wants us to be. 

Sacrament of First Penance

The Sacrament of Reconciliation is a healing Sacrament. This is where we learn to mend our broken relationships with God and others. Congratulations to our students who received their First Reconciliation on Wednesday and in doing so have taken the next step in their Catholic Faith journey. 

Sacrament of First Holy Communion

In the upcoming week, students will commence their preparation for the Sacrament of First Holy Communion (the second step in their initiation into the Catholic Faith). We pray for the students and their parents, for the strength to continue to share with each other their beliefs and love in Jesus Christ.

Receiving First Communion

Candidates may receive Communion at any 5:30pm Saturday Mass or any 8:00am Sunday Mass from 12/13 March onwards.

Grace and Blessings
