Sacrament of Reconciliation
It was wonderful to see so many families last Wednesday for our Reconciliation Reflection Evening. It was a wonderful opportunity to discuss the sacrament of Reconciliation and build upon and share our understandings together.
Project Compassion
As we begin to enter the last week of Lent, Jesus calls us to recommit to our Lenten promises of Almsgiving, Fasting and Prayer. It was wonderful to see the Year 5 students engage with prayer this morning about the themes of Lent and our call to action during this time.
We ask that you continue to donate to Project Compassion to support those less fortunate than ourselves within our own community and overseas.
