Easter Sunday 2022


May we take this opportunity to wish all our parishioners and their families every blessing of the Risen Lord, this Easter.  May the Lord protect and guide us all.                Fr. Brendan

 

 

Dear Lord,

May I realise afresh today, what Your death and resurrection mean for me.

Forgiveness, freedom, and the ability to walk with You through this fallen world into eternity.

May I always find my satisfaction in You and Your willingness to offer Yourself to me.

In Jesus’ name,  Amen.

 

Thanks

Thanks to all who helped prepare our churches: Sacristans, Ministers of the Word and Eucharist, Flower societies, Choirs and Stewards for Easter, and every week.

Most of all our thanks to you, our parishioners, for participating and making our Easter Ceremonies so special.
