Services
There are so many opportunities for you to connect in the Year of the Holy Spirit. Each event seeks to focus an experience of encounter, discipleship or mission centred on our Archdiocesan vision: Only Jesus.
Whether at major gathering events like the Marian Procession, participation in The Apostolate or coming into one of our Roundtables or Retreats in the lead in to the Archdiocesan Assembly.
