I hope this message finds you well. I invite you to a special gathering planned for Monday, November 6th, from 12:00 p.m. to 2:45 p.m.
I hope that you can attend the event. We look forward to seeing you and welcoming you. Our meeting is geared towards providing a space for mothers, fathers, grandparents, and toddlers to come together and build a sense of community.
During this time, we will be offering a buffet-style meal, where you can enjoy a delicious spread of food while mingling with other families. It's a perfect opportunity to share your joys, challenges, and experiences of raising children in today's world.
As part of the gathering, I will also be offering a special blessing for you and your family. It's important to remember that your role as a parent or guardian is a sacred one, and it deserves recognition and support. We will be distributing Miraculous Medals as a symbol of our prayers and blessings for your family.
Additionally, I would like to take some time for a reflection on family life. We will delve into the unique joys and struggles that come with nurturing and guiding young ones in faith and love.
Your feedback on parish life will also be valued, as we strive to create a welcoming and supportive environment for families within St Teresa's community.
We understand that many of you may have to pick up your older children from school or nursery, so we have carefully chosen the time to accommodate those needs.
Please let us know if you are able to attend, as it will assist us in organising the catering appropriately.
In closing, I want to extend my heartfelt blessing to you and your family, and especially your family home. May God's grace and love be abundant in your lives as you navigate the beautiful journey of parenthood.
Your brother in Christ,
Canon Michael
