Opening School and Ash Wednesday Mass

Students, Staff, Parents and Parish members attending a very special Mass on Wednesday 22nd. We were very privileged to have Fr Thaddeus run our celebrations. A special mention to John O'Connor and Justin Matthews from the CSO for attending as well. 

Students lead reading, prayers and engaged in the singing of some lovely hyms. Thank you to all who were able to join us as a whole community. We look forward to the next event in our schedule. St Josephs Day and Welcoming Mass Sunday 26th March.

Intentional Discipleship Zoom Hosted at St Joseph's 

I want to thank all who were able to attend the Zoom Hub on Friday the 24th. It was a great opportunity to collaborate virtually with the whole diocese on a common topic. We were able to share the good things our Parish feels is working well but also focus on some aspirational goals/wishes we have for the future of the Parish. Overall the nights message was how can we intentionally share the good news of Jesus in our every day. We are not trying to change the world overnight or shout from the room tops, rather what can I do in my life that can help and support the people that I interact with on a daily basis. There will be future Zoom Hubs so keep an eye out for the upcoming dates. We would love to have you attend if interested.
