Mary MacKillop Feast Day - Thank You
Thank you to everyone for your participation on the 7^th August. It was wonderful to see all the students dressed in old fashion clothes. A very big thank you to Year 6 for the fantastic effort and organisation of the activities. We raised $228.90 dollars which will be greatly appreciated by the Maubara Orphanage. The money will be used to help the children with food clothes and education.

MASS
Be assured that in the Parish, every precaution is being observed to ensure the safety of those who come to Mass:  distancing is clearly marked in the Church and maintained during Mass; all of the liturgical restrictions are followed (Communion in the hand and no singing); the Church is cleaned after each Mass; registration of those who attend is carefully recorded; sanitising is practiced by all who enter the Church.  So, please, if you are well and able do not be hesitant about coming to Mass.

Registration will open at 7.00 a.m. on Monday 17th August, 2020 (go to the website www.ccsh.org.au and press the link “Register Here” for Mass).

Please remember that all Masses will be celebrated at St. Thomas Aquinas Church, because of the social distancing requirements.

Weekends Mass times will be:

Vigil Mass                      5.00 p.m.

Sunday                         8.00 a.m.

                                    9.30 a.m.

                                    5.00 p.m.

​

From Monday (17 August, 2020) Father Sean will take up the role of Administrator of the Parish of Ingleburn.  This is a temporary position to prepare for a Parish Priest to be appointed there sometime next year.  The plan is for him to spend Wednesdays and Thursdays in Ingleburn as well as some weekends to celebrate Masses. 

The only change to our timetable here will be Wednesday and Thursday morning Mass now being 7.30 a.m. (to allow Father Sean time to get to Ingleburn for 9.30 a.m. Mass).

Sacrament of Reconciliation will be offered from 4.15 p.m. to 4.45 p.m. on Saturday.

REMINDER
Reminder - If you have any students who are in Year 6 and wishing to be confirmed this year, will need to attend Mass as of the weekend of the 29^th August to register. If you have already registered for Confirmation, remember to get your name marked off after Mass. You will still need to follow the links on the parish website www.ccsh.org.au to register for any of the weekend Masses.

PARISH RAFFLE
The drawing of the raffle for the car has, for obvious reasons, been deferred to early 2021, but tickets remain on sale.  Please visit our website www.ccsh.org.au to buy tickets.  An ideal Christmas gift perhaps!
