Ministry Matters HEATER 2019

Following the brief advert in the newsletter about a heater for our outdoor activities, a generous benefactor from the Mass at St Paul de Chartres, stepped forward and simply handed me $150 in notes. I bought a great heater and used it for the first time on Friday Night. It certainly made a warm gathering for the youth and a healthy glow in the midst of the dark and cold of the Night. My thanks to our generous benefactor who provided such warmth to our great parish gatherings, and also to those who followed with making the same enquiry. Thanks to all who chose to be so generous. God bless, Fr John ALPHA 2019

Reminder about ALPHA starting in mid August. ‘Come and See’ Night is an opportunity to taste of ALPHA without the commit-ment. But it is well worthwhile to come and see what this thing is all about. So ‘Come and See’ on Wednesday 21st August at Our Lady of the Assumption Church at Park Ridge starting at 6:00pm with a meal and some background to this thing called ALPHA. ‘Come and See’ See further in the newsletter for more details.

YOUTH MASS IN AUGUST

Our next Youth mass will take place on Saturday 3rd August at 6:00pm at St Bernardine’s Church. This will be followed by a sausage sizzle and quiet drinks. GOLD COIN contribution to the evening would benefit the limited coffers of the parish as we en-deavour to continue supporting the youth gatherings that we are endeavour to build together. ‘COME ALONG, BE APART OF THE CELEBRATION! O, and BRING A FRIEND.

Youth music

On Saturday Morning 3rd August at 9:00am, there will be a mu-sic practice at St Bernardine’s Church for the youth choir for Sat-urday Night. If you can sing come and support the choir, if you cannot sing, come anyway. We can teach you!!
