Baptism is the gateway to the Christian life. In it, we are freed from sin, born into God’s family, and marked as His forever. If you’re seeking baptism for yourself or your child, we’d love to hear from you.
God’s mercy is greater than our mistakes. In Confession, we receive forgiveness and peace, restoring our relationship with God and the Church. Times are listed on the homepage — or speak to Fr Michael anytime.
In Holy Communion, we receive the Body and Blood of Christ — the source and summit of our faith. Preparing children for First Communion or returning as an adult? We’ll walk with you.
Confirmation seals us with the gift of the Holy Spirit, strengthening us to live boldly as disciples. If you or your child (Year 8 or above) is ready to take this step, let us know.
Marriage is more than a wedding — it’s a sacrament of God’s love, lived out daily. We ask couples to get in touch at least six months in advance so we can help you prepare well.
The priesthood is a vocation of radical love and lifelong service. If you feel a stirring to explore this call, speak to Fr Michael — we’d be honoured to journey with you.
When we are sick, struggling, or nearing death, Christ meets us with healing grace. The Sacrament of the Sick brings strength, peace, and sometimes physical healing. Contact us to arrange a visit.
