by eliminating pride and vindictiveness and carefully choosing our words.”

Rosary for Peace & Evening of Prayer and Testimony

Thank you to all the St Martha’s Families who joined us on Zoom in praying the Rosary for Peace last night.

Thank you also to the Parents and Grandparents who attended the wonderful evening with Fr Andrew Grace and Mrs Juliana Elarde this past Sunday night at St Michael's Belfield.

It was wonderful to pray together and to listen to their powerful testimonies of great miracles and conversion stories.

Congratulations
