RCIA/FAITH INSTRUCTION
The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults is designed for:
1. Adult inquirers, that is, for the non-baptized/baptized in other faiths (if you wish to find out more about Christianity or becoming a Catholic).
2. Adult Catholics, who are baptized, but not catechized and/or did not complete the other Sacraments of Initiation (First Communion and/or Confirmation)
3. Those interested in the Catholic Faith.
If you (or someone that you know) are interested to know more about the Catholic Faith, then the RCIA program is the answer! You may register for RCIA classes which begin this coming September.

CHURCH NOTICE BOARDS AND POSTERS ON DOORS & WALLS!
All flyers/posters etc. for the church notice boards, must be pre-approved by the Parish Office before they are posted on the notice boards, and are subject to removal without notice. All concerned are strongly advised not to post notices/posters etc. on the walls, doors and furniture of the church. Your cooperation in this matter is greatly appreciated in order to preserve our church premises. Thank you and God Bless. Fr. Pierre

ALL PARISHIONERS NEW AND OLD... PLEASE NOTE
If you have moved in the last few months, please make sure your new address and phone number is communicated to the parish office. The best way to inform the parish office of an address change is to complete a blue "Change of Information" Form available at the information table in the foyer. Writing the information on your Sunday envelopes sometimes gets missed out. Many boxes of Sunday envelopes remain unclaimed at the Parish Office. If you recently completed a parish registration form and asked for envelopes. Please pick them up. Thank you - Parish Secretary

ST. MARY'S PROPERTY AND SECURITY - IMPORTANT
Dear Parishioners, You will notice that we now have Hard Cover Journey Songs Hymnals in the pews. We have invested in these expensive hymnals so that they will last for a longer period of time. Please handle the books with care and replace them gently back in the pew slots. In the past we have had break-ins in the Church & Church Basement and some property were stolen. This is YOUR CHURCH - PROTECT IT. Please be vigilant and report any suspicious behaviour to any of the Ushers or regular Parish Volunteers. Thank you for your cooperation.
