Family and Faith
From the Family Educator
Thank you!
What a wonderful community we have here at Our Lady Star of the Sea. I would like to take this opportunity, together with the staff of OLSS, to thank all of the parent helpers who assisted yesterday with cooking and serving lunch for over 600 people. It was lovely to see everyone enjoying the day and we are so thrilled to be a part of such a strong community. “Our Love is not just words but something real and active” John 3:18.
Playgroup at OLSS - Little Stars
Year 6 students completing the Pope Francis Program popped along to share in the fun and enjoy some playtime with their OLSS Little Stars friends. Why don’t you come along and join in the fun, every Friday in the Lower Parish Centre.
Walking with Christ this Lent
A small group of our greater community gathered last Thursday at Woronora Memorial Park to partake in Stations of the Cross. It was a solemn, yet beautifully reflective event celebrating the season of Lent.
Sunday is family time!
It is time to restore the sacredness of precious FAMILY TIME. Our Catholic tradition identifies SUNDAY as a day of gathering to worship and breaking bread together. Would you like to celebrate and re-connect with your family? Here is the perfect opportunity!
Come to Mass at Our Lady Star of the Sea Miranda Parish at 10:30 am then enjoy lunch at a local Italian restaurant in Gymea- FIOR. This local establishment is offering children free dining on Sundays. For reservations phone 02 9534 220 or book online here.
