Dear Parishioner,
We have all been affected in different ways by the current pandemic and I do hope that you are all are coping well and feeling safe in your own situation.
The many different and unusual changes have been very dramatic for our Church and Parish. As well as the restrictions imposed for Mass and religious services, our usual social activities have completely stalled. There has been no morning teas, luncheons, Christmas in July, shoe box collection, Bunnings’ Barbecue or any other social or fundraising activities.
The Parish income this year has not gone close to previous years, while our daily expenditure has not changed, but rather has increased because of the additional expenditure necessary to ensure we are meeting all the Covid sanitation and safety requirements.
For the above reasons it has been decided there will be a ‘100 Club’ run over 10 weeks between October and December. These funds will help with the continuing overall expenses.
Thank you for your support of our parish during these difficult times.
Please see the information below this will outline all the details of cost, prizes and dates.
May the Holy Family continue to bless you and keep you safe.
Kerry Bugden PPC Secretary.
