Sacramental Program Thank You
After what has been a difficult year, we rejoice in having been able to celebrate the Sacraments of Confirmation and First Eucharist the weekend before last.
I would like to extend my deepest gratitude for the superb effort everyone put in to making the Masses so memorable for our children. Special thanks to Fr John, our seminarian, Dom, Kylie Morrissey, Kerri Bowman and all 3/4 staff at St Augustine’s, Jackie Stockdale and staff at St Patrick’s Tongala, the Music Group, our sacristans Annette Ryan and Marg Cocks, the collectors and Colleen and Leanne in the Parish Office. A lot of time and hard work goes into preparing for the Sacraments and the liturgies and your commitment and dedication is truly appreciated.
To the beautiful children, their parents and sponsors, it has been a difficult year and the burden of preparing for the Sacraments was left to you parents. I appreciate your time, patience and continued support throughout the journey. The weekend was a great testimony to your dedication and hard work, and the children were truly magnificent.
Finally to the parishioners, thank you for your continued prayers for our sacramental children and their families.
Peace and blessings to you all.
