Baptism Welcoming Ministry
In 2018 the Parish Council began a new ministry (Baptism Welcoming) whereby a member of the parish attends and supports the priest at the Baptism Preparation meeting at 9.30am on the first Saturday of the month. This involves greeting the parents and families, providing them with some hospitality and assisting in the organisation of the morning. The total commitment is for about an hour on the morning. There are currently a few volunteers in this ministry and if there were 10-12 people, that would only be a commitment of once per year. If you would like to assist please contact the Council: cathedralppc@bne.catholic.net.au or phone 0414643224.
