HARVEST MASS
On Sunday 22nd we will celebrate our Annual Harvest Mass at 11.30am. This celebration has its roots in the Old Testament when God's people gave thanks for the fruits of the harvest. This was a week-long celebration known as the Feast of Tabernacles. We invite our farming community to share in this Mass of Thanksgiving, and we invite all parishioners to share in their celebration. As usual, we expect a rich display of all the fruits of the earth, and we thank the members of the farming community who work so well to produce a beautiful display.
