Sacramental Milestones

We welcome many families into our churches to celebrate a happy occasion, and support many families whose loved one has entered eternal rest.

We welcome infants, toddlers, school aged children and adults for Baptism, and support the parents, students and adults on their faith journey.  Fr Trac and Nanette Giovannini guide parents and school aged children on their journey to Baptism and other Sacraments of Initiation (Eucharist and Confirmation); and the parish’s Rite of Christian Initiation in Adults (RCIA) team guide adults on their faith journey.  During February, Sophie was welcomed into the Catholic Church, surrounded by family, friends and her classmates.  Like all special occasions, it came with cake!  Congratulations and welcome Sophie.
