It was wonderful to have Father George celebrate Mass with us yesterday for The Feast of the Assumption. The Assumption of Mary is a Holy Day of Obligation in the Church calendar and the actual feast day is Saturday 15th August. According to our faith Mary was assumed body and soul into heaven having completed her earthly life.
Father congratulated the children on their respectful participation in Mass, beautiful singing and their knowledge of the Feast Day.

Our school captains, Eliza and Hugh congratulated Father on his 10th Anniversary of his Ordination in The Priesthood and presented him with a gift from the school.

It was also an opportunity to formally welcome our news students to St Joseph’s- Cody, Annabelle and Ryan.

This week we ask Mary to take care for us as we pray ‘The Hail Mary’.

Have a lovely week.
