17.01.2022 Dear Parishioner's, According to the NSW Government update, 50 people are now allowed in the Church from the 1st June. Therefore for the weekday Masses there is no need to call the Parish Office to book, as most times we are not up to 50 people. However for the weekend Masses, Parishioners are advised to call the Parish Office to book for Masses so as to help keep the number to 50. You can also send an email to book for weekend Masses: [email protected] The weekend Mass schedule still remains Saturday 6pm Mass St Nicholas’ Church Sunday 7.30am Mass St Mary’s Church Sunday 9.30am Mass St Nicholas’ Church Sunday 5.30pm Mass St Nicholas’ Church For the Weekday Masses they will now resume as normal Monday 7am Mass St Nicholas’ Church Tuesday 9am Mass St Mary’s Church Wednesday 7am Mass St Nicholas’ Church Thursday 9am Mass St Mary’s Church Friday 7am Mass St Nicholas’ Church Saturday 9am Mass St Nicholas’ Church THERE WILL BE NO EVENING MASSES.

13.01.2022 Have you ever tried to read the entire Bible and then found yourself bogged down in Leviticus? The Bible Timeline by Jeff Cavins is a 24 part Bible study series that will take you through a detail synopsis of the entire narrative of the Bible. This is NOT an academic study, it is a pastoral storytelling of our salvation history to assist you in reading the Bible. This will give you a firm foundation for understanding where any piece of the scripture ‘fits’ into the Bible st...ory, and a springboard for further lifelong scripture study. Indeed, we know that it is not possible to have gatherings at this time, however, we have a Parishioner who is willing to run this Bible study on Zoom on either Tuesday or Wednesday night. For expressions of interest (or assistance in setting up Zoom) please contact Baden Sinclair on 0468394115 or email [email protected]. For more enquiries call the Parish office 67662228 or email [email protected]

03.01.2022 Today is Good Friday. Find resources for today, including the entire Passion narrative, here: http://bit.ly/ACBC_GoodFriday Lord, especially today during the t...ime of Coronavirus, finding the time to comfort others and picking up our own crosses seems more difficult than ever. But you did, through unimaginable anguish and towards your death. We pray for the courage to face our sins and offer our lives. Every cross we bear and every person we give hope to along our paths leads to you and the promise of everlasting life with you.
