CALL TO MINISTRY
In two weeks, we will be asking you to consider the different ways in which you may be able to contribute to the life of our Parish. There are 24 different Ministries across five different groups where we will be seeking your support. These include Liturgy (i.e. ways you can contribute to Holy Mass), Support Groups (e.g. St Vincent de Paul), Pastoral Care (e.g. Weekend meals for Father), Church maintenance (e.g. cleaning), and Social life (e.g. monthly BBQs). A full list of Ministries is available on the noticeboard at the back of the Church. Your contribution is vital if we are to continue to grow and thrive as a Parish. So, when you see the questionnaire at Masses on the 18th and 19th, please give serious thought as to how you can support your Parish.
