Understanding the Human Person

Scripture and the Church’s history give us many examples of the great impact when a whole community undertakes prayer and fasting together. To encourage a focus on the great gifts of marriage and family during the Sundays in October, Most Rev Michael Kennedy (Bishop Delegate, Marriage and Family) suggests that parishes may celebrate Mass, pray the Rosary, and undertake Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament during this time.

Please download the attached leaflet on how families and communities can approach fasting, and a sheet comprising copies of the Prayer to the Holy Family, designed in bookmark form, as well as an A3 poster and prayer leaflet.
