Part 2: Strengthening One’s Relationship with God: Prayer and Sacraments

The Catechism of the Catholic Church emphasises the importance of prayer and the Sacraments in the life of a Christian. It refers to prayer as the means through which we celebrate our faith in God and enter into a personal relationship with Him (2558). As we do this, the Sacraments mark all the important stages of our Christian life and sustain us in our sense of mission as Christians (1210). Join us as we explore what prayer is, the difference between saying prayers and praying, and how the seven Sacraments can deepen and give meaning to our unique relationship with God.

Dates: Tuesdays, 1—15 June (3 sessions)
From: 7.30pm-8.30pm
With: Sr Margaret Scharf OP and Fr Vincent Glynn

Lent is a time of preparation for Easter, which is the greatest feast day on our Christian calendar. We can prepare for it by spending more time on prayer, participating in the beautiful devotion of the Stations of the Cross (see times below) and participating in our 2021 Adult Faith Education Program (see details on our website).  All these activities give us an opportunity to renew our relationship with God and one another and to grow in our understanding and appreciation of the beauty of our Catholic faith.

On Fridays 7pm at St Lawrence, Balcatta followed by Mass at 7.30pm.
