Celebrate Sunday

We need a few people to assist with time and talent in sharing their gifts …

As part of our continuing vision with Celebrate Sunday and our efforts to keep the World Youth Day dream alive and active we need to engage the support of some people in the area of hospitality.  Both vibrant liturgy and good hospitality are key to the continued development of Celebrate Sunday.  We are keen to get a group of people to assist with the hospitality component:

¨ A couple of people to coordinate the weekly suppers after Mass (planning of menu, food, stocktake, etc).  Not required to attend Sunday night, job can be done through the week. 

¨ Four people to assist one Sunday night a month with food preparation, meal serving and clean-up:  5.30 pm - 8.30 pm (we need three teams to cover the month — Spaghetti night is on the fourth Sunday).

Please contact Paul at the Parish office to see how you can become involved.  Gather a few friends together, form a team, pick a Sunday of the month and become part of the Parish’s continued mission of outreach to young people and families.
