Feast of the Assumption Whole School Mass
On Thursday, 15 August all students at Nazareth will be attending mass to celebrate the Feast of the Assumption. This is a holy day of obligation, one of only two in the Church’s liturgical year. The other being Christmas Day. At the end of her earthly life, Mary was assumed, or taken up, into heaven body and soul. Mass will commence at 10am and we will be sharing this mass with the students of Stella Maris. All families are welcome to join us.
Grandparents Day Mass
Thank you to all who came to our Grandparents Day mass last Wednesday. As always when we celebrate our grandparents we had a full church and the morning team was a big hit with everyone enjoying scones, tea and coffee. Thank you for helping make it such a special day.
Wednesday Mass and Faith & Learning visits
This week Year 4 will be attending mass at 9am and next week, in Week 5, Year 3 will be going to mass. All parents and families are invited to the Year 3 classrooms after mass to view a snippet of their child’s learning. All families are welcome to come.
Save the Date - First Holy Communion
If your child is in Year 3 or older, has completed the sacrament of Reconciliation and you wish for them to celebrate the sacrament of First Holy Communion, the enrollment weekend is 24-25 August. Please attend one of the masses over that weekend and enrol your child to celebrate this most important sacrament. First Holy Communion will be held over two masses on Sunday, 24 November 2024.
All mass times can be found in the All Saints Parish Bulletin and all other important information. A link can be found on the Parish Website: https://www.dow.org.au/parish/all-saints-catholic-parish-shellharbour-city
