1st Sunday of Lent

1^st Sunday of Lent– February 26th, 2012

1.     During the month of March, at all weekend Masses, we will be doing a Head Count of all persons attending Mass. We ask for your understanding and patience. This exercise is necessary for the Chancery to assess the current and future needs of the Archdiocese.

2.     Fridays of Lent – Way of the Cross organized by the Youth Group and Team. We begin at the foot of Calvary at 6pm.

3.     Our Annual Parish Lenten Retreat – Monday 19^th to Friday 23^rd March at 6.30pm. Msgr. Robert Llanos will be preaching on the theme: Revitalising our Catholic Culture and Identity.

4.     First Communion class resumes on Saturday 3rd March. Registration will also be done on that day.  Please bring the original and a copy of their Birth and Baptismal certificates.  A reminder, those who received their first Holy Communion in January are also encouraged to come and receive their pictures and to spend some time in praise.

5.     The feature film of the Cinema Club for March is “Joseph of Nazareth”. This is the first length movie focused on the life of St Joseph who was given the most daunting task ever asked of a man: to be the husband of the woman who would give birth to the Messiah, and the father and protector of the Holy Family and the man closest to Christ. This film on our beloved patron saint will be presented on Sunday March 4^th at 6pm at the Parish Hall. All ages are welcome. Drinks will be provided. Please bring snacks to share with others.
