St Vincent de Paul Winter Appeal

Thank you to everyone who has kindly brought in donations for our Vinnies Winter Appeal! We are still collecting donations right up until the end of the term. You can bring your donations in to your child’s class or drop them off at the front office.

We are still hoping to collect the following new items:

• Gloves
• Socks
• Jackets
• Beanies
• Blankets
• Scarves
• Jumpers
• Tracksuit pants
• Sleeping Bags

All your kind donations go directly to people in need in our community or are sold at our local Vinnies Centres to raise funds for other forms of assistance like respite programs and crisis accommodation.

As a thank you celebration for the kind donations, we will be having a ‘Winter Woolies’ Day on Thursday 30 June. Children will be able to wear their warmest winter woolie clothes instead of school uniform. Keep an eye on Compass for the notification!

Sacrament of First Eucharist

Please continue to keep our First Eucharist Candidates and their families in your prayer this weekend as they receive the sacrament for the first time. You are all welcome to join in the masses over the weekend at St Michael’s Church and St Monica’s Church.

Next Thursday, St Monica’s and St Michael’s will be coming together to celebrate our Parish, Our Lady of Perpetual Help Feast Day. We are so excited to be able to celebrate together after being unable to over the past two years.

Did you know?

The Feast Day is celebrated each year on June 27.

Our Lady of Perpetual Help is known for miracles and answers to prayer.

Our Lady of Perpetual Help, pray for us.
