Education in Faith

A prayer for our students

We pray for:

Strength - that God gives our children the strength to do what they need to do each day.

Courage - that our children will be brave as they face the challenges that are before them.

Peace - that their hearts will be calm and peaceful as they go through their day and in their sleep at night.

Compassion - that our children will show compassion on those in need and who have less than they do.

Justice - to give our children a sense of justice to stand up for what is right and to defend the weak.

Wisdom - that our children will grow in knowledge and understanding.

Hope - to give our children the hope that comes from above - the kind that far exceeds what we have in the here and now.

Love - that our children are filled with the love of God. That they will know how deeply they are loved, and that love will overflow onto others.

Welcome Mass and Pancakes

Fr Michel is inviting the whole St Joseph's community to attend 8.30 Sunday Mass on February 22.  After mass, pancakes will be served as an opportunity for all to share and get to know the Sacred Heart, Upper Yarra community.

Ash Wednesday

All students will attend mass on Ash Wednesday at 9.00am in the church.

This is a parish mass and other family members are always welcome to attend.

Confirmation

We have been given the date of Tuesday June 6, at St Mary's Mt Evelyn.  Details about times and the preparation program are still to be arranged.

Sacraments in 2023

At this time we only have limited information about Confirmation.  As we learn about times and dates for preparation and celebrations we will inform you.
