Catholic Education Week

Next week is Catholic Education Week. Celebrated annually in Week 3 of Term 3, Catholic Education Week is an opportunity for all 313 Catholic Schools in Queensland to celebrate and promote their distinctive mission and ethos. In Bundaberg, we combine with the Catholic Primary Schools, and the Parish, for Mass at the Holy Rosary Church. This will be on Sunday 23 July at 5.30pm. We warmly welcome all the Shalom community to join with us in the celebration.

Class Masses

Each Religious Education class is allocated to a Wednesday morning 8am Mass in Loyola Chapel. The class, along with another, co-hosts this Parish Mass by taking the roles of readers and processors. When your student has an upcoming class Mass, you will receive a notification or an invitation to attend. We warmly welcome all to this weekly joint Parish School celebration. The Year 10 & 7 classes will be hosting over the next few weeks:

• Wednesday 19 July Mrs O’Driscoll’s 10 G and 10L
• Wednesday 26 July Mr Kiernan’s 7.0 and 7.1
• Wednesday 2 August Mrs Anderson’s 7.2 and 7.8

Passionist Family Group Renewal

The Passionist Family Group Movement has been active in Bundaberg for twenty-three years. The motto of the Movement is “A Family for All”. The aim of the Movement is “To love one another.”

The Bundaberg Groups (MacKillop and Bargara) warmly welcome you to join them on the weekend of Saturday 29 and Sunday 30 July when there will be a renewal of the Movement in our Parish.

Fr Ray Sanchez CP and Mrs Celine Bowman, Coordinator of the Northern Region, will be joined by local members at all Masses on the weekend and will speak of the benefits and joys of being part of the Movement.
