Lifeline - Mental Health Month October
During the month of October, we have been raising funds for Lifeline via your donations. We sincerely thank Janice & Willie Quan, Founders of the Rosary Mission Group, for generously donating the colourful hand-made and beautifully beaded Rosaries to St Martha’s.
The Rosary can be a source of hope and comfort, especially during challenging times. Praying the Holy Rosary is a great opportunity for each of us to strengthen our relationship with Our Lady. The Blessed Rosaries are available in the Church foyer and are free, however an offering into the LIFELINE DONATION BOX IN THE CHURCH FOYER would be appreciated.
