All Saints Mass

On Thursday the 1^st November, Kinder, Year 1 and Year 2 attended the parish All Saints day Mass.

It was a lovely Mass with Father George engaging the children during his Homily and asking them questions.

All Souls Day

On Friday the 2^nd November, Mr Ferguson and Years 3 and 4 led a special Mass for All Souls. Many parishioners attended and the music was lovely with Mr Ferguson and William Gaskin playing the guitar and Sarah Scott playing her flute.

Thoughts/ Questions / Reflection for the week: Visio Divina 

Use the image below to encounter the divine.

1. Study the picture slowly, taking a first glance noting the colours, people, places and things.  Remain with the image for one to two minutes. If you would like, jot down a few words about the image.
2. Take a second, deeper, look. Where is there movement? What relationships do you see? Engage your imagination. Where are you in the artwork? What do you see from that perspective? What deeper meaning emerges?
3. Respond to the image with prayer. Did the image remind you of an experience, person or issue for which you’d like to offer thanksgiving? In what way does God’s promise change, or not change how you visualize your relationship with the earth, each other, and God? Offer your thoughts as prayer to God.
4. Find your quiet centre. Breathe deeply. Relax your shoulders, arms and legs. Rest in this quiet. Let God pray in you. God prays beyond words.
