Calendar
A Lenten initiative of prayer and reconciliation celebrated around the world on the eve of the 4th Sunday of Lent.
’24 Hours for the Lord’ will begin with an Opening Liturgy at 5:30pm on Friday 28th March, continue through the night and end with the Vigil Mass at 5:30pm on Saturday 29th March.
Parishes and communities are invited to take the lead for an hour or two during these 24 hours. Everyone is welcome to visit the Cathedral and spend some time in prayer for peace, healing and hope in our broken world.
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.
