Last weekend 63 Parish children received the Sacrament of Holy Eucharist for the first time. As Parish Priest, and on behalf of Fr Simeon and Deacon Bruce, I would like to thank everyone involved in the organisation of this very important celebration. Whilst so many people are involved and their efforts are so much appreciated, I would especially like to thank the children’s teachers, Mr Louis Papineau, Kaliya Tribek, Mr Tony Del Grossi, Ms Danielle Damjanovic, Yidarra Principal, Mrs Carmel Costin, Yidarra Deputy Principals, Mr Nik Hofmeester, and Mrs Rosemary Paparella, Judy Machado, our Parish Religious Education Coordinator, as well as Mrs Angela McCarthy, Mrs Olivia Morais, Ms Jackie Carroll, the Bateman Music Ministry and their choir. Special thanks to Grace Budiman for the delicious cake, Veronica Soegandhi and her helpers for the beautiful flower arrangements. Also thank you to Mr & Mrs Louis Papineau from our Creative Liturgy team, Mrs Beverly Bucat, Mr Danny Ng, our photographer Mr Gerard de Souza. Our the ushers, cake servers, Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion, Altar servers and Acolytes for the support you provided. Thank you all for making this such a wonderful celebration for our Parish Community. God bless, Fr. Phong
