Do you know your pew neighbour?

New people are a sign of life in our parish family! But it's not enough to just have new people walk through the doors; we want them to feel truly known and welcomed.

Wearing a nametag is a simple way to make that happen. Even if you think everyone knows your name (or you know everyone else’s), chances are there’s someone who’s new (or who has forgotten your name and is too embarrassed to ask). So let’s make it easy for one another!

Grab a nametag before Mass this weekend, write your name, and meet your pew “neighbours”. We’ll have a chance to pray for the during Mass too. Jesus’ love is personal; let’s make ours personal too!

Baptisms!

Baptisms will take place on Sunday, June 21st at the 9am and 11am Masses. The Masses will be slightly longer, but it’s so worth it!
