Season of Lent

On the second Sunday of Lent, we move from Jesus' retreat to the desert and temptation by the devil to the glory shown in Jesus' Transfiguration. On the first Sunday of Lent, our Gospel always tells the story of Jesus' temptation in the desert. On the second Sunday, we always hear the story of Jesus' Transfiguration (Christ's appearance in radiant glory to three of his disciples.)

Lenten Prayer

Lord God, you call us out of the darkness. Fill us with your light. Amen. Abraham, holy man of the Scriptures, pray for us. Amen.

Did you know?  

Pretzels were invented by a monk around 600 AD in Germany and

were given as Lenten sweets. Its shape is said to resemble a common prayer position, hands crossed over the chest.

Year 2 Parish Mass

Yeamass1.jpgr 2 will be joining the parish this Sunday (17th March) for Mass.  We ask that those who have children in Year 2, to make a special effort to attend the school’s Parish Mass. The parish choir will be at this Mass and warmly welcome anyone to join in singing. If you are planning to attend Mass on Sunday and would like your child (or any family member) to have a formal role such as a reading, bringing forth the offertory or the Gospel procession, please email: Natalie.zarb@cg.catholic.edu.au

If you are able to cook a meal, please use disposable containers and label with ingredients and date. All meal donations can be brought to the Front Office.
