St Brigid’s Church 150th

Anniversary

Paver & St Colmcille Installation

Preparations are well underway for the 150th Celebration of St Brigid’s Church on Sunday, February 9th, 2025.

A series of story boards will be designed and erected in the St Brigid’s Church Grounds to give families insight into our Parish story. These story boards will include the Mass Centres of St Brigid’s Gisborne, St Ambrose Riddells Creek, St Patrick’s Macedon and a paved installation in the front of St Brigid’s Church with the original gate from St Colmcille, Bullengarook. This will be designed as a passive area where people can view, sit and read about our parish history.

Attached is an Order Form for Single Pavers which we are encouraging all our families and parishioners, past and present, to purchase as a lasting contribution to being a part of the Parish. You may have family members who no longer live in the area but would like to purchase a paver as a remembrance of their connection to our Parish.

Pavers will be available to order through our two schools, St Brigid’s & Holy Cross Catholic Primary Schools as well as at our four Parish Mass Centres after Mass on the weekend.

Paver Order Period:  Friday September 6th ~ Sunday, September 29th

Cost of Individual Pavers:  $40   

Simply fill out the engraving details on the Order Form attached and return to the school or in the Offertory collections at Mass. Please place your Paver Order Form and money in a sealed envelope with your Name + Paver clearly written on the front of the envelope.

For those wishing to pay by Direct Debit please reference your debit with your name + Paver to    St Brigid’s Church Account
