What’s Been Happening in Religious Education

This weekend at mass, our Gospel reading focuses on the parable of the Prodigal Son.  As this year is the Year of Mercy within our church, I would like to share with you a reflection on the parable.

Mercy Matters

We have received a flyer from the Josephite Sisters in relation to an event being held to celebrate Earth Hour on Saturday 19 March (see flyer attached).  It is a wonderful initiative to be part of and I encourage you to consider attending the event as a family. During this time of Lent, we are called to do something more than we would normally do and this may be a practical way to take something up.  In receiving the gift of the earth, we are called by God to be stewards – to nuture and protect our planet.  This certainly goes a long way to living out that calling.
