☕️ Farewell Morning Tea for Teshana ☕️

Yesterday we gathered as a parish community to thank Teshana for her dedication and service as our Parish Secretary. We are so grateful for the care, warmth, and support she has given to our parish over the years, and we wish her every blessing in this next chapter. 💐

At the same time, we warmly welcome Teresa as our new Parish Secretary. We look forward to this new beginning and keeping her in our prayers as she joins our parish family. ❤️

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the morning tea and helped make it such a special occasion.

This National Volunteer Week, we give thanks for the many hands and hearts that help make our parish a welcoming and faith-filled community. 💛

From our liturgical ministries, community outreach, evangelisation, parish upkeep and every quiet act of service in between — your generosity reflects Christ’s love in action.

Volunteering is more than giving time; it is building community, sharing faith, and serving with love.

To all our volunteers: thank you for all that you do. Our parish is stronger because of you. 🙏

Your voice matters. 💬✨

Our Youth Pillar Listening Consultation is all about creating space for young people, parents, mentors, and those previously involved in youth ministry to come together, share ideas, and help shape the future of youth engagement in our community.

We believe the strongest impact happens when we collaborate, listen, and build together. Through open conversation and shared experiences, we can create stronger opportunities, deeper connections, and meaningful change for the future.
