Adoration takes place ever Wednesday and Friday immediately following 9am Mass and closes at 7pm. All are welcome to call in and spend this special time with Jesus, who is truly present here in Body, Soul and Divinity.  Our roster requires that you give one hour per week to sit with Jesus.  During Eucharistic Adoration, Jesus and the tabernacle cannot be left unattended at any time, hence the request for people to sit with Him for this one hour on a roster basis.  Jesus will bless you and your family abundantly for this quiet time spent in his company.

Notification of these dates will be published in the newsletter and the bulletin.

We follow Fr Justin’s style of meditations to help enhance our lives by freeing ourselves from the stresses, worries and angers that we hold in our bodies which cause all the depression and sickness we have in our lives. Working on being positive and focusing on all the good we have in our life enables us to find the person God knows we are, giving us the tools to take back our lives to live in good health, love and peace with ourselves, others and God.  Meeting in Mercyville Chapel on Mondays 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm

This small group reaches out to people with intellectual disabilities, through regular fortnightly meetings, so that they can be included in the life and liturgy of the parish.Volunteer advocates from our parish are linked on a one-to-one basis with a person with intellectual disabilities and through these relationships members of the group come to know and understand what it is to love and to be loved, to give and to receive, to forgive and to be forgiven. This is faith in action for both the volunteers and for the people with disabilities.
