ADULT
PREPARATION FOR CONFIRMATION
On
Sundays 7, 14 and 21 March, from 4.30 TO 5.30pm in St James
Priory, there will be a 3 session preparation course held for
adults who have not received the Sacrament of Confirmation.
Since Confirmation is the Sacrament of Christian maturity, it is
important for parents, newly-weds and all who are challenged
with responsibility to receive this Sacrament, if this has not
occurred before now. If, for whatever reason, you have not
received this Sacrament, the opportunity is now, with
Confirmation to be administered as part of the Easter Vigil on
Saturday, 3 April.
Phone Fr Abel on 3397 1671
for more details.

The members of the parish value the Sacraments as the
instruments of God's Grace. If you are about to receive one of
these Sacraments for the first time or if you simply want to know more about
these sources of God's help, click on The Sacraments at the top of the
page and then choose the Sacrament you are interested in learning about.
We value and support the administration of the parish by the
Augustinians. We show this pride on our web site by placing the
Augustinian logo at the top of every page in the site, You can learn much
more about the Augustinians, about St Augustine himself and about other
Augustinian saints by clicking on The Augustinians button above.

formal prayers. You will also find the readings for the Masses of next
