HAPPY FATHER’S DAY
This weekend, In Australia and other parts of the world too, it is FATHER’S DAY – on the first Sunday of September, we give thanks to all Fathers; for their love, care and generosity. We pray that God grants them joy, health, and strength with their family and friends.
Also, for all fathers who have passed into eternal life. May God give them a permanent place at the heavenly feast, the reward for all their goodness and kindness. Happy Father's Day to all our Dads in the community. May God bless you and grant you peace and joy.
