On Sunday, 25 August St Patrick’s Parish acknowledged and celebrated the diversity of its faith community. The theme was: We acknowledge with grateful hearts the many voices that pray with one voice in our parish.  Readings, prayers, song and dance were presented in Tongan, Filipino, Irish, Zimbabwean and Indian. Families came in traditional dress and the parish was a sea of vibrant colour and sounds. A shared meal followed where the egg sandwiches and lamingtons took second place to the sensational rice and pasta dishes, continental sweets and spicy soups.
