25.01.2022 #ICYMI: If you haven't already, make sure you listen to Fr Sebastian's Homily from last week's Ash Wednesday Liturgy. He asks three questions that can help us all make the most of this Lenten season.

25.01.2022 "God continues to talk with you, through your parents, teachers, brothers and sisters and grandparents. Encouraged by these people of God, you will achieve your goals in life." That was part of Fr Sebastian's simple message from our Graduation Mass last weekend. Watch the video below to hear what other wisdom Father had to share with the Class of 2020

21.01.2022 Now this is a CBC gentleman!
