A Year of Engagement
Lord God, I say yes to your will for me:
To live out my baptism in obedience to you.
As a member of our parish,
I commit myself to your mission of invitation:
To be vibrant like your Son, to extend myself in charity,
and to actively accompany people to encounter Jesus.
Who lives and reigns for ever and ever. Amen
On the Journey
We pray for Gina Fry whose funeral service will be at OLR 11am on the 1st July.
We pray the souls of our deceased priests, religious and parishioners –
Rest In Peace.
