Wishing all of our parishioners every grace and blessing at Christmas and throughout the year ahead.

In the spirit of the season we are all invited to reach out with a warm welcome to all those who, for whatever reason, find themselves at a distance from the family of St. Augustine’s.

With the prospect of a new year and the opportunity for a fresh start we hope you will be assured of a particularly warm welcome at our parish during our Christmas Masses and celebrations.

The simplicity and warmth of our Christmas crib express perfectly the great mystery of God’s redeeming love for every one of us, as we kneel before the Christ-child.

Those unable to share in our Christmas celebrations through sickness or for whatever reason are assured of a special remembrance in our prayers during this holy season.

May God bless you and your loved ones this Christmas.
