Feast of the Sacred Heart

7th June 2024

The Feast of The Sacred Heart of Jesus takes the physical heart of Jesus as representation of His Divine love for humanity. It is always celebrated on the Friday 19 days after Pentecost Sunday. As we celebrate the Feast of the Sacred Heart, we are reminded that nothing can separate us from the enduring love of Jesus Christ. The Sacred Heart of Jesus is so powerful, and yet it can be far too easy to forget that divine love flows into our daily, ordinary lives, lifting up our heavy burdens into the loving embrace of Jesus’ love.

Our Sisters have heard a special call and dedicate themselves to the embodiment of Jesus in our world today. Together, we strive to help those in need with the same compassion and open heart that Jesus first showed us.

Today we were able to thank our Sisters for their ministry to the Parish and faith development of the school and the children. We are very lucky to have them here with us and we appreciate all that they do. The school captains presented a card and flowers to the Sisters to show our appreciation and the staff shared a beautiful morning tea after mass with Fr Mark and our Sisters.

Kind regards,
Miss Casey Figueira
