I would like to say a huge thank you to those who were able to attend our very first Sacred Heart playgroup on Monday. It was a great morning and well attended. If you have a toddler or are a carer of toddlers, please come along to the next playgroup which will be in a fortnight on Monday 11^th September in the Parish Hall. Feel free to tell a friend.

Congratulations to the children who received their First Holy Communion on the weekend. I attended Saturday night service, and it was beautiful to watch the children and their families receive the special gift of Jesus for the first time.  I felt blessed to be part of this Sacrament.

In the spirit of Father’s Day, I would like to bring your attention to this conference for men.

Happy Father’s Day to all fathers and father figures. We are praying for you on your special day. I hope you are spoilt and enjoy every moment with your families.

 Dear God, we pray that You will strengthen the

fathers and grandfathers

of our nation to know that they can count on You

to help them lead and protect those that are dependent on them.

Let them know that they are not alone in upholding

their responsibilities to provide for and

support those under their care.

Amen
