Jesus is calling you deeper in The Cenacle!
You've encountered Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, and now you're wondering, "what's next?" Whether you recently joined the Church or are a lifelong Catholic, "The Cenacle" sessions offer something for everyone seeking a deeper encounter with Jesus through the Eucharist.
​
The monthly Cenacle formation programme aims to help participants to grow in relationship with God and each other by introducing them to a way of life centred on the Eucharist as food for life's daily journey.
​
New format: The first hour of the Cenacle will take place in the parish hall in the context of a round-table, faith sharing meeting. A short, informal presentation on the Eucharist will precede a longer opportunity for participants to share their own reflections. The second hour will be time of Eucharistic Adoration.

Pilgrims of Hope: Strengthened by Holy Mass
Saturday December 13, 9:30am - 11:30am
​
Rooted in Baptism and enlivened by the Holy Spirit, faith, hope, love, and patience. HOPE sustains us. As God’s children, we are a pilgrim people in a journey of Hope. Hope does not disappoint” (Rom 5:5). Christian hope does not deceive or disappoint because it is grounded in the certainty that nothing and no one may ever separate us from God’s love. God’s word helps us find reasons for that hope. We need to recognize the immense goodness present in our world, lest we be tempted to think ourselves overwhelmed by evil and violence. The signs of the times, which include the yearning of human hearts in need of God’s saving presence, ought to become signs of hope.
In this jubilee year the central message is Hope. As we conclude this jubilee year, let us reflect on how we can strengthen our Hope as “Pilgrims of Hope.” Join us for a reflection on “Pilgrims of Hope” on:
Saturday, 13th December at 9.30am. Light Refreshments will be served.
