Year 2 Family Mass

It was a lovely celebration on Saturday night when our Year 2 community gathered together to celebrate Mass. Well done to all of the students for their exceptional behaviour and a special mention to all those students who read or had a role in the Mass.

 

Father Stephen spoke about the importance of families being connected to the Church and has sent a warm invite to all families to attend Mass when they can.

 

Thank you to Miss Farrelly &  Miss Zeeng for preparing the students so well. 

Year 5 Family Mass

This is a friendly reminder that the Year 5 Family Mass will be held this Saturday 28th October @ 5:30 pm. This Mass will be celebrated with Father Stephen, as Father Ian will be interstate. We are looking forward to celebrating our Faith together as a Year 5 group.

Gospel Reflection - Sunday 29th October

Gospel Reading

Matthew 22:34-40

The Pharisees continue to test Jesus with a question about the greatest commandment.

 

Family Connection

Children learn about love from real, concrete examples witnessed in family life. We can help children to love God and love their neighbours by showing everyday acts of love, generosity, and kindness—our own expressions of our love for God. These acts, small and large, are the expression of what Jesus identified as the two greatest commandments: love God and love neighbour.

 

Make a poster together as a family. Write the words Love God in the center of the poster and write the words Love Neighbor near each of the four sides of the poster. Read together today’s Gospel, Matthew 22:34-40. Talk about how Jesus taught us that our love for God is revealed in the love that we show to other people. On the poster, use pictures and words to show some of the ways that your family shows their love for other people.

 

Pray together that your family will continue to express your love for God by loving others. Pray the Act of Love.
