During the year many people have been involved in serving others in ministries too numerous to name.
Thank you for living out your Baptismal commitment in a way that inspires us all.
Our prayer as we celebrate Christ’s birth is that we may all continue to grow in faith, hope and love.
Merry Christmas everyone from Fathers Mike, Steven & Phil, Kanishka, Annie, Anne, & Digna.

OUR VISION
PLENARY COUNCIL PRAYER
Come, Holy Spirit of the great South Land.
O God, bless and unite all your people in Australia
and guide us on the pilgrim way of the Plenary Council.
Give us the grace to see your face in one another
and to recognise Jesus, our companion on the road.
Give us the courage to tell our stories and to speak boldly of your truth.
Give us ears to listen humbly to each other
and a discerning heart to hear what you are saying.
Lead your Church into a hope-filled future,
that we may live the joy of the Gospel.
Through Jesus Christ our Lord, bread for the journey from age to age.
Amen.
Our Lady Help of Christians, pray for us.
St Mary MacKillop, pray for us.

RamblingsJust a brief and personal note to wish you all a Happy and Holy Christmas. I know that many people are not able to be with family and friends at this time so I pray that everyone stays safe and that you can all enjoy the best possible celebration.
Many thanks to those who have contributed to all aspects of parish life during this rather trying year – it is has been so different from what we all anticipated at the beginning of 2020. As usual there are so many who contribute that I run the risk of forgetting people if I try to name names – so I would simply ask that you accept this as my sincere thanks for what you do for all of us.
As this is also my last Christmas with you as part of the Parish Team I would also like to say thank you to all those who have been part of my 7 years in the Parish. There will be a few other times over the next few weeks when I will expressing my thanks but today, on this special day, may God bless you and all your families for all you have done to support me and my ministry in this great Parish.
Take care, stay safe in your health and travel
