Once we’ve made the decision to be a disciple of Jesus, we need help to grow closer to God. That’s what we as a church community can offer! Come and take part in any of our events and groups which might help you on your spiritual journey.
Faith Foundations
Often people are spiritually curious but don’t know where to start searching to find out more about God.
If that’s you, then we’d like to invite you to come on an exploratory journey with other people who are looking at shaping their spirituality and values.
We’re having six weekly get-togethers with Fr Jim, Mayo Tripolone and a team from the parish to look at questions like:
Is God really there?
What makes Jesus different from Gandhi or Buddha?
How do I pray?
What’s does the Bible mean?
If you’re Catholic and want to explore your own faith at a deeper level than you learned as a child, then this is for you.
If you’re not Catholic and you want to learn more about Catholic faith and what the options are for becoming Catholic, then this is for you.
