Walking Together Labyrinth

Earlier in the Year on our St Joseph’s Feast Day, all staff and students decorated a rock in the theme of ‘Walking Together’. Our creative and dedicated groundsman, Mr Hetherington has been working quietly behind the scenes to use these rocks to create a walking labyrinth. This afternoon staff had the first opportunity to walk the labyrinth during our spirituality staff meeting. Over the coming weeks, we hope all students will have this same opportunity to walk the St Joseph’s labyrinth in prayer.

Baptisms

We have had a number of enquiries about children seeking to be Baptised. At St Joseph’s Parish, we celebrate Baptisms for children and infants on the first and third Saturday of every month. Attendance at one family preparation session prior to the Baptism is an important part of this formation.

Preparation Sessions Occur:

1st Wednesday of every month - 5pm – St Joseph’s Parish Centre

3rd Wednesday of every month – 1pm – St Joseph’s Parish Centre

Baptism Celebrations (multiple families) Occur:

1st & 3rd Saturday of every month - 11am – St Joseph’s Church

To enrol in the Baptism sacramental program please email oconnor@cg.org,au with your preferred preparation session time. Once your preparation session is confirmed, Father Anthony will guide you through the rest of the process.

Yours in Christ,

Melanie Stratford
