Save the date! 

Saturday 28 October from 10am

On 28 October, 2023, St Joseph’s Parish, O’Connor will celebrate its Golden Jubilee. Either Archbishop Christopher Prowse or Rev. Fr. Richard Thompson (Vicar-General) will grace the event with a Eucharistic celebration at 10am. This “Multicultural Day” is a day of celebration with programs and performances as well as showcasing food from different cultures and religious groups. Everybody is welcome. Let’s bring our families and friends as we reminisce the history of our beloved Parish and enjoy our friendship. Please get in touch with the parish office if you would like to be involved.

Baptisms

We have had a number of inquiries 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. 

Social Action and Justice

Well done St Joseph’s, we have achieved our goal of creating 50 Dignity Packs to donate to St Vincent de Paul. What an amazing achievement. Next week a member of St Vincent de Paul will visit St Joseph’s to collect our donations.

Yours in Christ,
