We had a very successful Youth Mass / short retreat / pizza evening last Saturday. We are so proud and thankful to the youth for their great effort...they all did superbly! Thank you to the parishioners who assisted with all the organisation and arrangements. We would like to build on this. We would like to have more Masses and events for the youth of our parish. To do this, though, we need the help of more adults. We would like to get more parents / grandparents involved, and they could perhaps become part of a parish youth commission. See notice below.
