Eucharist 2021

Eucharist Family Workshop- Online

6.30-7.30pm Wednesday  25 August

Thank you to all the families who attended the online workshop last Wednesday. All participants engaged with the presentation and activities. The families are now working on completing a poster with a photo of themselves (see sample from teachers) and a candle, which will be used during the Euchrist celebration during Term 4.

Eucharist Reflection Day- Date to be determined once Lockdown 6.0 has ended

Your child will also participate in a student Reflection Day at school. Once Lockdown 6.0 has ended, you will be notified about the new date and requirements for the day.  On this day students will attend the Parish Mass ( if restrictions allow for this) and engage in Eucharist activities with their teacher.

Eucharist Family Celebration- Term 4- Date to be determined once Lockdown 6.0 has ended

Father Jacob has kindly offered to celebrate Mass for the students and their families separate to the Parish Mass. This will enable more family members to attend. A new date will be selected once this current lockdown ends. All candidates will be at the same Mass.

A Prayer for the People of Afghanistan

Lord, we lift up the people of Afghanistan to you right now. We pray that you would take hold of them and help them walk through this fearful time. Protect them under your wing and help them feel the comfort and peace that only comes from your powerful presence.

So many people who have called this place their home have been displaced because of this event. Remind them, Lord, that their true home is in Heaven with you. Give those who believe in you the courage to stand strong in their faith and be a strong witness for you. Also, be with those who do not believe in you – help them to see the peace in your followers and allow the Holy Spirit to stir in their hearts as they witness this.  Amen
