Parish News

The Parish Team is aware of the enormous impact these prolonged lockdowns have to many of us. So, we're organising Trivia Nights, Care Calls and a weekday online mass as a way to get connected and strengthen our sense of belonging to each other as one community. 

The first person in the Gospels to proclaim Jesus was Mary, his mother. She remains, more than 2000 years later, the most popular Christian saint. She is the most influential woman in history, and the most loved. 

On 8 August, people across the world who continue to be inspired by St Mary of the Cross, Mackillop will celebrate her life and legacy. Australia’s only Saint, Mary’s love and compassion excluded no one. She had a very special place in her heart for those most disadvantaged, marginalised 

In a joyous celebration, Fr Martin, along with Monsignor Tony Ireland, was ordained a bishop on July 31.  Despite severe restrictions on numbers, a few parishioners were able to attend. We've captured the celebration in a photo slideshow.

It is hard to imagine that Victoria has entered into a ‘snap lockdown’ from 8:00pm Thursday 5 August 2021 for seven days or until otherwise notified. During this ‘snap lockdown’ our places of worships are closed. Weekend and weekday Masses will not be celebrated.
