Community Liturgy
Thank you to the amazing group of Year 9 students who, at very short notice, prepared today’s Community Mass. Next week the liturgy will be prepared by teachers, in recognition of World Teachers’ Day celebrations in Australia. All students and families and community members are especially welcome to pray for and with teachers in the College and teachers around the world, especially those managing with limited resources and in a time of pandemic.
Parent Rosary
Straight after the Community Mass next Friday, parents are welcome to stay behind for ten minutes to pray the Rosary together. This is a parent-led initiative – thank you very much to parent, Vince De Luca, for offering another way for the parent community to pray.
FAQS
What is the Rosary?
The Rosary is a Catholic devotion. More detailed information on praying the Rosary can be found here: https://www.usccb.org/how-to-pray-the-rosary
I have never prayed the Rosary before.
Don’t worry. It is a straightforward format and will be led by a parent who is familiar with the form.
I don’t have Rosary beads.
Beads are an optional extra. The heart of the Rosary is the story of the life, death and resurrection of Christ, according to scriptural sources. It is this contemplation which is of greatest importance. (In any case, the beads are in groups of 10 – and for centuries people have used their fingers!)
When is the Rosary happening?
Friday 30 October and Friday 27 November 8:35am – 8:45am, College Chapel.
