Children’s Sacramental Program
A Sacramental Program is run every year starting with an information night early in the school year.
If your child is a baptised Catholic and starting Year 3, they are eligible for the Sacrament of Confirmation.
Reconciliation and First Communion will follow the following year (Year 4).
Children not attending St John’s Primary will be led through a preparation program that runs once a week for 4 weeks before the Sacrament.
If your child is older than Year 3 and has not received any of the sacraments and is Baptised Catholic, eligibility for all three Sacraments will be on a case by case basis.
Please contact the parish office in early February if you would like your child to take part or for further information.
Marriage
Please contact our parish office if you would like to marry in one of our churches or would like our priest to marry you at another location.
Penance – Rite of Reconciliation
Please speak to Father Michael before Mass to organise.
Anointing of the Sick
We hold Anointing Masses every month. Please check the parish bulletin for the next listed Mass.
If you require an urgent anointing please contact Fr David Gilbey on 6685 6260.
