We’ve made it to the end of the 2023 school year!   Please see some messages from the parish for around the Christmas season.

St Vinnies Christmas Appeal

Thank you to those families who were able to make donations to the St Vincent de Paul Christmas appeal.  These donations have now been collected.  They will join with other donations made within our parish, and will be turned into hampers to then be passed onto families in need this Christmas.  If you and your family would like to assist in the packing of these hampers, a group will be joining together on the morning of Saturday December 16 at the Good Shepherd Community Centre, Rasmussen.  

Volunteers for Christmas masses 

We will be requiring Readers, Eucharistic Ministers, Candle Bearers, Collectors and Offertory Procession. These volunteers will be required for the following Mass times, which will all be held in the Emmaus Hall, Morindo Drive, Kirwan.

Christmas Vigil Mass:  Carols from 6.30 pm for 7.00 pm Mass

Midnight Mass:  Carols from 11.30 pm for 12.00 am Mass

Christmas Morning Mass 9.30 am

If you are available to assist at any of these Masses, please put your name down on the boards at the back of each Centre.

We are also looking for people who may be interested in joining our Vigil Choir or the Midnight Choir.  

Please contact the office to let us know.  We will then pass your details on.  

If you have children who may be interested in being a part of the Children's Pageant at the Christmas Vigil Mass, please let the Parish Office know. Children will be required to come along to Practices.  

You can contact the parish by phoning 47239844 or emailing goodshepkirwan@tsv.catholic.edu.au 

I would like to thank everyone in the St Benedict’s community for another wonderful year.  I wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Pax,

Nick
