Here is the Parish bulletin for this coming weekend.

We have lots happening with the Youth Group who are running a Cupcake drive – details in the bulletin.

The Parish Pastoral Council are holding a raffle for the Youth Group fundraising.

Tickets will be on sale in the Cathedral after each weekend Mass until it is drawn after 9.30am on Sunday 22nd September.

Tickets are $2.00each.

We take cash, EFTpos (from Sunday morning on) and you can purchase tickets online using the BSB and account number for the Parish listed in the bulletin.

We would like to thank all our very generous local businesses who have donated so far, please support them if you can:

• Toys Galore and More,
• Jens Flowers,
• Victoria Hall
• Bulmer’s Gifts

Don’t forget tonight’s ‘Evening of Praise and Worship’ in the Cathedral at 6.30pm. Fr Francis, Fr Aneesh and Fr Mark are looking forward to seeing you all there.

We are running a new Planned Giving program in October. Stay tuned for more details.

However, envelopes for our cash/cheque givers finish this weekend.

Anyone who is listed as a CASH Planned Giver will have a receipt and envelopes till the end of October available for collection in all parish churches this weekend.

Please collect these from your local church if this applies to you as they will not be posted due to the time constraints.

If you are not a cash giver but would like a receipt, please call – 5144 4100 or email the parish office by replying to this email and one will be sent to you.

Next Friday’s morning Mass in the Cathedral will be held at 9.30am (6 September) and will be followed by adoration and benediction at 10.30am.

Catholic College will be our hosts for First Sunday Cuppa after 9.30am Mass on Sunday 1st September. Please bring a plate to share if you are attending.

Happy Father’s Day to all Fathers, Grandfathers, Great Grandfathers, and father figures for Sunday.

Have a lovely weekend.
