All children preparing to receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation, First Eucharist or Confirmation in 2018 are required to attend one of the Parish Sacramental Commitment Masses.

These masses will be celebrated, starting this weekend, over the weekends of the 17 & 18 February and the 24 & 25 February 2018. Saturday evening mass begins at 6.30pm with Sunday masses being held at 7.15am, 9am and 5pm.

When you arrive at one of these masses, please make sure you have your name ticked off by one of the teachers or catechists who will be waiting in the foyer. Your Enrolment Form must be brought to one of the Commitment Masses. If you have already placed your completed Enrolment Forms in the tray in the church foyer, you still are expected to attend a Commitment Mass.

Attached below is a copy of the ceremony that will take place. All masses will have the ceremony on overheads.

First Eucharist

This weekend we celebrate the first of our First Eucharist Masses – such a special and exciting time for our Community.

Please follow the link below to read an important letter from Lyn Harkins, our Parish Sacramental Coordinator, regarding rehearsals for the First Eucharist Masses.

All children and at least one parent are asked to attend the rehearsal, if possible. At the rehearsal we will require information regarding how many family/guests you are expecting to attend your child’s mass so seating can be allocated.

Please remember to bring some non-perishable food items to donate to the Community Basket at your child’s First Eucharist Mass.
