Calendar
Last December 25 parishioners gathered for Cake, Coffee and Chat – the idea to reconnect with fellow parishioners.
Feed back was “let’s do this again and soon” no formality – gathering in a relaxed atmostphere, the Cathedral Foyer.
An easy date to remember – the first Friday morning of the month 10.30pm – 12.m.d. do come and meet one another – no need to respond- we will post a reminder each month in the Cathedral Connection – if you are free come and say ‘hello’.
All parishioners are very welcome, the more the ‘chattier’. If you would like to note the first Friday dates they are below.
7 February, 7 March, 4 April, 2 May, 6 June, 4 July, 1 August, 5 September, 3 October, 7 November, 5 December.

October is the month of the Holy Rosary and Our Lady and in particular Tuesday 7 October is the Memorial of Our Lady of the Rosary. The Rosary will be held Monday 6 October at 11.30am for the memorial of our Lady of the Rosary on Tuesday 7 October. Everyone is very welcome to attend.
In recent times the Mother of God has appeared in various parts of the world and asked for the recitation of the Rosary, the prayer she gave to the world centuries ago. It is her favourite prayer, for it is essentially a meditation on the life of her Divine Son. The Rosary is a combination of vocal prayer (the Our Fathers and Hail Marys) and of mental prayer, namely, reflection on important events in the life of Christ and His Mother.
We meet on the 1st and 3rd Mondays of the month in Connolly Hall from 7.00pm to 8.30pm.
All are welcome. For prayer requests and enquiries, please email [email protected]
Scripture Reflection (held every Tuesday evening from 6 pm until 6.45 pm in the Parish Office).
The Gospel scripture for the coming Sunday is read and discussed within a small group. Everyone gets the opportunity to express their views no matter what level of knowledge of the Liturgies. The discussion is deemed to be very beneficial in providing background to the Gospel when it is read in the next Saturday and Sunday’s Masses.
