Our Catholic Community

St Vincent de Paul Winter Appeal - Thank you!

Thank you student and parent community, the #dressedbyvinnies day and #tapetheteacher was a resounding success. Combined with Milo Mornings, we are able to donate $800+ to our immediate Moree Community via SVDP.

Milo Mornings will continue throughout winter - so don't forget to bring your cup and a coin.

Confirmation Enrolment

Last week, students in Year 6 who are eligible to enrol for the Sacrament of Confirmation, received their information and enrolment letter. Confirmation is open to all Catholic students in Year 6 and above, who have received the Sacraments of Baptism, Reconciliation and Eucharist.

Enrolment for this sacrament will take place at mass on Sunday 28th July, followed by an introductory faith formation session to be held in the church. Candidates and parents are asked to attend. (This session will be repeated on Monday 29th July at 3:30pm in the church, for those unable to attend on the Sunday).

Candidates will need to bring their enrolment form, or alternatively, this can be returned to the Parish Centre prior to this date. DO NOT RETURN THESE TO THE SCHOOL OFFICE.

Please find attached a copy of the note and enrolment form, should you misplace the one that has been sent home.

National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Sunday - 7th July 2019

Peace to this House and all who dwell within

by Queenie McKenzie

The theme for the 2019 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Sunday Resources is “Peace to this house and all who dwell within”. 

 

In our busy lives, we are often bombarded with competing priorities, distractions, worries and concerns about ourselves and others, which can cause us to forget to take the time to stop, look around, reflect and look for our peace in our lives. Our strong connection to culture and land helps us see the beauty in our world and by sharing this appreciation we are helping share God’s love.

 

The message for this year is to reflect and make time to look for your inner peace in your busy life, and celebrate together with your families, friends and the wider community God’s message of peace and love for all.
