A CHRISTMAS MESSAGE
As your Priest, I wish to take this opportunity to wish you all a very peaceful, joyful and hope filled Christmas season.
In the words of St Francis Blessing:
“God bless you and keep you.
May God smile and be merciful to you.
May God turn his regard towards you and give you peace”.
I welcome all new members to the parish and all those who return to visit family and friends. Thanks to all for you welcome, prayers and valued support to me and to your parish. Your intentions will be especially remembered in the Christmas Masses. May you who are sick, troubled or bereaved experience peace and healing from the Infant Saviour Jesus.
A Very happy and peaceful Christmas.
Fr. Peter
