A Special Day - 31 August

On Sunday 31 August, we will be saying a very fond farewell to Father Michael as he retires.

The day begins with the Parish Mass at 10:00am, and then in the evening at 6:00pm Father Michael will lead us in Choral Evemnsong andf Benediction.  Afterwards, we will gather in the church hall for a buffet supper, when he will take his leave of us.

This is also a joyful moment in the life of our parish, as we celebrate the 149th Anniversary of Dedication of our church and step together into our 150th year of faith, prayer, and fellowship.

We would love you to join us, as we give thanks fir Father Michael'sd ministry among us and share in this very special day for our church family.

Our Sunday 10:00 am Solemn Mass is live streamed on our Facebook page -

Initial considerations are being made as to how we might celebrate this auspicious occasion.  Read more here as to how you may become involved.
