Welcome....Our Parish strives to be a welcoming community that lives the Good News of the Gospel in its actions and programs. Whether you are looking for a new parish home, just visiting us for a short time, returning to the practice of your Catholic faith or are just wanting to find out more about the Catholic Church, our parish community are most happy to have you with us.
Through our parish we have the opportunity to grow spiritually and put our faith into action through giving some of our gifts of time and talents. We hope you will share your time and talents with us, your Parish family, friends and community, by participating in our various ministries, social services, activities and spiritual experiences. There is a wide range of activities (described in the Groups & Ministries section of this website), through which you may be able to do this. The amount of time and effort needed varies and there is something to suit many different life situations. There may be something that interests you. The opportunity is there for you to enrich your spiritual life in a practical way and to also increase your sense of belonging to our community. Please do not hesitate to contact the Parish Office if you need more information. May God Bless you and your Family, Fr Mark Percival, Parish Priest |
SACRAMENTAL PROGRAM
Due to the recent weather event the 2025-27 Sacraments of Initiation Program Information Night has been rescheduled to 6:30pm on Tuesday 25th March 2025, at Christ the King Church. This meeting is for parents of all children who are baptised and will have turned 8 years of age by July 1, 2025, (usually Grade 3 children and above), regardless of which school they attend. The premise under which this policy is implemented within our Parish, is about inviting children to complete their initiation into the Catholic faith as part of a parish based, school supported, family centred preparation program. We will be working together as a team to continue your child’s faith journey. An information night will be held at 6:30pm on Tuesday 25th March 2025, at Christ the King Church, Churchill Street, Graceville, for parents and children who would like to find out more about the program - Confirmation, First Holy Communion and Penance - and the process for enrolling their child/children in the same. Important information regarding the program will be provided at this night, so at least one parent or guardian should attend so that you may be in the best possible position to make an informed decision on whether your family wish to commit to the program at this time. For more information please email Melissa the Sacramental Program Coordinator at [email protected] |
