WEEK AHEAD
FAREWELL TO FR. GREG
Our
Parish has become quite expert in saying Farewell to our Priests over the
years. Now it is time to say "Farewell" and "Thank You" to
our Parish Priest, Fr Greg Bourke. We have had 7 years of Wonderful Leadership
with Fr. Greg, and he is going to be sadly missed by all of us.
To
show him how much he is loved and cared for, we will be taking donations to
give him something special. Over the weekends of 11/12th Sept and 18/19th Sept
there will be a 3rd collection at each Mass to enable everyone who wishes to
contribute to Father's Farewell gift. Donations may be put in an envelope
marked "Fr. Greg's donation" or loose. We will have a farewell
"do" for Father sometime closer to the time of his leaving us.
PARISH
HISTORY
We are endeavouring to
put together a comprehensive History of St Peters. At our last Parish Council
gathering, all groups were asked to document their history and submit it to the
Parish Office by no later than Nov 11th 2010. If your group wasn't in attendance
at the last meeting please take note - We would also like some personal
memories of the Parish from Parishioners who have been here for a long time.
Or, if you were in a group that no longer exists and it was an important part
of our Parish we would greatly appreciate your input. Also photos that we can
copy to add to the history would be great. Any queries please phone Bernice on
9749 2812.
NEW OR USED BIBLES
St. Peter’s Prison Ministry is collecting new or used
bibles to be given to prisoners to help them in their faith journey. If you are able to help, please place the
bibles in a box provided for this use in the church hall. Thank
you.
