Friday 22nd September
The regular 09.30 Mass became a children's Mass as 4 of the school years from St. Peter's school were in attendance.
We were graced by some beautiful singing at the start and the end of Mass, and during Mass itself the schoolchildren were attentive, answered Fr. Mark's questions during the homily and were respectfully very quiet during the Mass itself. They were a credit to the school and the regulars at church thoroughly enjoyed the service and the singing which is not normal during our weekday Masses.

Weekend of the 25th Sunday in Ordinary Time
This weekend, our 25th Sunday in Ordinary Time gives us the parable where the vineyard workers are taught the lesson of "The first will be last and the last will be first" in getting to the kingdom of heaven. Deacon Jim has shared his thoughts with us through his weekly homily. Read it on our Homily page now (link to the right.)
