Feast of St Joseph the Worker - 1st May
St Joseph was a great man, but where would he be without his family, without Jesus and Mary? I doubt he would make many appearances in 21st-century blog posts—most 1st-century Jewish carpenters don’t. Joseph’s holiness came through Jesus and Mary, by serving them and receiving from them.  Similarly, God draws us to Himself through those around us.  We do not become saints as isolated individuals, but as members of a family or community. 
Of course, Joseph’s family isn’t your normal family.  There’s a special grace about Jesus and Mary (understatement of the year).  If we compare our families to the Holy Family, we might be tempted to be discouraged, but by God’s goodness, Jesus and Mary are not distant, but rather intimately close to us:
Jesus is our saviour and brother, and Mary is our tender mother.

I am so happy the children have been enjoying the new take home Prayer Bear. We have resumed Prayer Bear rotations in kindy classes this week. Please remember to take some photos and encourage the children to pray with the bear, they could draw pictures in the activity book of the things they are grateful for.

Tomorrow begins May the Month of Mary.
We are honouring Our lady with a, Pilgrimage to Mary Mackillop Place.          We are excited to invite you to a special network event for our school communities. It is our privilege to announce our May Pilgrimage to the Mary MacKillop Place on Tuesday, 13th May, which coincides with the feast of Our Lady of Fatima.   In the Catholic Church the month of May is dedicated to Mary, and it is a custom of our faith to undertake a pilgrimage during this month to show our love and appreciation for Our Blessed Mother. This is a wonderful opportunity to come together as a parish and school community to celebrate faith, history, and connection.
