REC Report
WORLD DAY OF PRAYER FOR THE CARE OF CREATION
From the 1st September to the 4th October each year, we celebrate God’s gift of creation by praying and acting together to protect our common home. During this time our global family prays and continues to protect every creature in God’s beautifully complex web of creation. The theme of this year’s Season of Creation celebration is “Jubilee for Earth”. Today, take a moment to stop and appreciate the beauty of God’s creation, our home.

THANK YOU YEAR 3
Thank you to Year 3 for the wonderful idea to wear comfortable clothes last Friday. They raised a fantastic amount of $204.60. This will be very much appreciated by the Sisters at the Maubara Orphanage.
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.
Please remember that all Masses will be celebrated at St. Thomas Aquinas Church, because of the social distancing requirements.
