23.01.2022 Today we celebrated the feasts of Our Lady of the Rosary and our Lady of Fatima at the Grotto on the side of St Marys Church, Woodend. 50 people and a dog joined in the praying of the Angelus and the joyful Mysteries of the Rosary. Thank you to all who came - we prayed for all our Parish and your intentions. Our Lady Queen of Peace, pray for us! (Thanks to Moira for organising this great event)

20.01.2022 Thank you to all families who completed the survey (during Mass or online) to assist with the planning of Christmas Masses. There was an overwhelming desire to celebrate Christmas in our churches, therefore we won’t be using the Showgrounds this year. Over the next week I will be discussing Mass times and locations with the Parish Advisory Council. Once finalised details will be communicated and bookings will also opened. Stephen ofm

19.01.2022 At the end of Ordinary Time - Experience of Journey Our faith perspective is nourished by rhythms of time and celebrations. To many, the word ordinary suggests sameness. Nothing could be further from the truth in this Season. The origin of the Latin tempus ordinarii is: ordinal or counted time. The numbering of the Sundays in Ordinary Time is the way the Church organises its year. A time for listening, learning and building, a ‘growing time’. Thus, the colour used in ...Ordinary Time is green to remind us that we are tending new growth as we develop and equip our community for its on-going mission. This Sunday we will celebrate the feast of Christ the King. In confidence we call upon you, O God, and so we pray: Fountain of Love, you provide water for the thirsty; May we always give thanks for your endless gifts. Comforting God, in your mercy you drive away our fears; Help us reach beyond fears that keep us imprisoned. Faithful Companion, walk with us along our journey; Enable us to accept diversities among us and to bless all who walk, with integrity, a different road from our own. Liberating God, you make the desert bloom and bring hope and beauty; Free us to bring that beauty and hope to people in need of refreshment. O God, author of all truth, we rejoice in the faith that draws us together, aware selfishness can drive us apart. Let your encouragement be our constant strength. Keep us true in the love that has sealed our lives, as we seek to live the Gospel we profess. We ask this in Jesus’ name and in the power of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
