A time when each of us are encouraged to reach out to family, friends, neighbours, the aged, the lonely and the sick with the heart of the Gospel words "I am with you always..." An open invitation is extended to our Grandparents and the Elderly to attend our Parish Religious Education Program Family Mass today at 4pm followed by afternoon Tea & Coffee.
This is being celebrated for the first time on 25th July, dedicated to family by the Holy Father that stems from awareness of how the elderly, including those who are not grandparents need a family environment in which to live, and also how it is necessary for families to become aware of the role being played by their older members. We will also recite the Prayer for the First World Day for Grandparents and the Elderly at all the Masses this Weekend.
All parishioners are invited to attend a Thanksgiving Mass St Mary's Cathedral at 6pm in celebration of the Life of Salvatorian Founder, Bl. Francis Jordan.
Our Parish of St Simon Peter will be hosting a World Day of Prayer Service on Friday 4th of March at 10am followed by fellowship and refreshments in the Parish Centre. All welcome! World Day of Prayer is a worldwide movement initiated by Christion women to unite nations through prayer. Its purpose is to see national change and lives impacted by God through prayer and financial assistance. This year we take the opportunity to identify and pray for the women of England, Wales & Northern Ireland and the theme of our service is God's promise to his people in exile...
