Advent Reconciliation Service

As we prepare our hearts for the coming of Jesus this Advent, we are invited to pause, reflect, and receive God’s grace.

Reconciliation will be held on Monday, 8 December 2025 at 7:00pm in the Basilica.
This is a beautiful opportunity to receive the Sacrament before we welcome Jesus, the Christ-child, at Christmas.

We are blessed that Fr Fredy, our parish priest, will be there — along with priests travelling from across the diocese to support our community.

All are welcome
