24.01.2022 Today is the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. If you cant make it to Mass, you can always celebrate her birthday by praying a Holy Rosary

22.01.2022 By looking at Marys Assumption into Heaven we understand better that even though our daily life may be marked by trials and difficulties, it flows like a rive...r to the divine ocean, to the fullness of joy and peace. We understand that our death is not the end but rather the entrance into life that knows no death. Our setting on the horizon of this world is our rising at the dawn of the new world, the dawn of the eternal day. Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, homily on August 15, 2008. See more

20.01.2022 Gdy wydajesz obiad albo wieczerz, nie zapraszaj swoich przyjaci ani braci, ani krewnych, ani zamonych ssiadw, aby ci i oni nawzajem nie zaprosili, i mia...by odpat. Lecz kiedy urzdzasz przyjcie, zapro ubogich, uomnych, chromych i niewidomych. A bdziesz szczliwy, poniewa nie maj czym tobie si odwdziczy Z Ewangelii

18.01.2022 Today we honour St Andrew the Apostle. A Galilean fisherman of Bethsaida, Andrew was initially a disciple of John the Baptist, but one day he heard John identif...y Jesus as the Lamb of God. HIs immediate response was then to not only follow Jesus, but then persuade his brother who went on to become our first Pope, Simon Peter, to also do so. In this sense, St Andrew the Apostle is an inspiring evangelist who teaches us that faith, like love, desperately needs to be shared with others. It cannot be privatised if it is alive at all.St Andrew the Apostle, pray for us!

16.01.2022 Friends, I would like to share with you my homily from yesterdays Solemn Mass at St Marys Cathedral. I reflect upon the Australian Bishops social justice sta...tement for 2020, "To Live Life to the Full: Mental Health in Australia Today". Our COVID-19 pandemic has certainly ramped up anxiety levels for many and understandably so. While having faith doesnt inoculate you to fear, it might give you some important resources too to face your fears through these challenging times.

15.01.2022 Friends, Id like to share with you my homily from yesterdays Mass at St Marys Cathedral. I reflect upon the ongoing importance during the COVID-19 crisis of ...not distancing ourselves emotionally or spiritually from others, of ware-housing our elderly and seeing them no more and for ignoring other things that make life worth living and jobs worth keeping.

13.01.2022 "We adore you O Christ and we Bless you! Because of your Holy Cross, you have redeemed the world!" Friends today we celebrate the feast of the Most Holy Cross i...n which we recall the finding of the Cross that our Lord died on by St Helena. Yet this day reminds us of how powerful the Cross of Christ is, it is the Cross that we find love, mercy and salvation. The Cross protects us from all evil and provides us with comfort and healing. Therefore let us on this day gaze upon the Cross of Christ and say " O Holy Cross of Christ be my strength!". +Columba *Picture: Crucifix at St Particks Church, Brewarrina.

11.01.2022 OUR LADY OF CZESTOCHOWA - QUEEN OF POLAND The Icon of the Black Madonna, it is an Icon of Our Lady in the Byzantine Style. The Icon owes its dark appearance and its title of black Madonna to the centuries of candle smoke and incense that have been burned in its sight. The icon came to Poland by the means of Wadysaw, the Duke of Opole, in 1382.... Wadysaw invited our Pauline order from Hungry to come to Poland and found the Monastery of Jasna Gra to keep custody of the Icon and protect it. Interestingly enough the Icon has had a perilous history, with it being shot in the neck by a Tatar arrow and having its cheek slashed by the blade of a Hussite. The most notable episode that placed the Icon in jeopardy was the siege of Jasna Gra in 1655. Was the Swedish Invasion of Poland. All of Poland can be have said to have either joined the Swedes or capitulated to them. The Swedes unable to break the fortress eventually gave up and withdrew. The Poles have attributed this miracle to the intercession of the back Madonna. Inspired by the resolve of the Monks and the few remaining loyalist Soldiers, King Jan Kazimierz (John Casimir), resolved to entrust his kingdom to the Black Madonna and solemnly named her Queen of Poland. Czestochowa Shrine is the heart of Polish Catholicism and spiritual capital of Poland since 1382. The destination of annual pilgrimages uniting thousands of hundreds of Polish believers under holy Jasna Gora hill Claramontana (lat.) Clear Mountain. The place visited and blessed by the three consecutive Popes: John Paul II, Benedict XVI and Francis. Our Lady of Czestochowa, Queen of Poland, pray for us.

11.01.2022 Many things about us change throughout our lives, but the one thing that stays the same is the value of our lives.

11.01.2022 Canberras beloved Soup Lady Stasia Dabrowski has died at age 94. Since 1979, she gave a warm meal to those in need with her vats of vegetable soup no salt,... no pepper, no extras, just pure vegetables. She was named ACT Local Hero in 2017 for her tireless charity, the 1999 ACT Senior Australian of the Year, Citizen of the Year in 1996, and received an Order of Australia medal. We had the pleasure of meeting Stasia a few times and have put this video together from our archives.

06.01.2022 A blessed feast of St. Augustine! May God bless you today.

04.01.2022 Friends, today we celebrate the Memorial of Our Lady of Sorrows. Todays Memorial expresses to us the special union between Jesus and Mary. Yesterday we celebr...ated the Feast of the Holy Cross in which we recalled the finding of the true Cross and the power that the Cross has for us. Naturally today we commemorate the sorrows of Mary in which we recall Mary at the foot of the Cross looking at the her Son the saviour die for our salvation. Her sorrow at Our Lords death is a reminder of Marys maternal love and care not only for Jesus, but to us all. Mary as a true Mother shares in our joys and also in our sorrows. Therefore let us on this day call upon the help of Mary under the title of "Our Lady of Sorrows" to carry our burdens and present them to her Son the crucified Lord. +Columba

01.01.2022 Pope St John Paul the Great wrote that people who are willing to die for truth become like Christ himself and have throughout history helped our Church to survi...ve and to grow. One powerful role model for us all in recent history is St Maximilian Kolbe, the Polish priest who sacrificed his own life to save a younger man who was a husband and father as he faced certain execution at the Nazi concentration camp of Auschwitz. May the story of St Maximilians death teach us how we are called to live as Christians: In faith, hope and love to the end. St Maximilian Kolbe, pray for us!
