Parish News & Events

This short retreat is grounded in key Gospel texts and based on St. Ignatius of Loyola’s Spiritual Exercises. Participants are led in a gentle and creative way to experience and deepen their relationship with God. The retreat has a clear program and structure to encourage and direct daily prayer. A commitment of 25 – 45 minutes of daily prayer, four days a week, followed up by Sunday Eucharist is required over four weeks. The cost is $30 which includes the retreat book “The First Spiritual Exercises” by Michael Hansen. The retreat is suitable for all people – the only thing you need to bring is the desire to be open to the Divine.

Altar Servers who are in Years 7 – 12 will embark on their annual Altar Servers Picnic to Wet N Wild on the Gold Coast as a “Thank You” from the parish. Have fun!

Altar Servers in Years 4 – 6 will be taken to Ballina Water Slide in the morning, McDonald’s for lunch and then onto Ballina Ten Pin Bowling for glow in the dark bowling as a “Thank You” from the Parish.
