If you are coming along, please be aware that Cumberland City Council’s Diwali Festival is on the same evening:

  • Station Street will be closed between Dunmore and McKern Streets
  • If you are driving to the church, best access will be via Cumberland Highway and Smith Street, Fullagar Road and Dunmore Street, or Great Western Highway and Dunmore Street
  • Arrive in plenty of time to find parking, as it will be limited; parking will probably be more easily found towards Wentworthville Public School
  • The Bennett Street playground will be open for parking as usual, but the Garfield Street car park will be reserved for invited guests

Every year, we invite our community to pray for students who are completing Higher School Certificate exams. You can have your name, or the names of people you know who are sitting these exams soon, added to our list of prayer intentions.

All names listed will be published in our bulletin on 9 October and parishioners will be asked to keep these students (and all students preparing for end of year exams) in their prayers.
