As we welcome the New Year, we also celebrate the Solemnity of Mary, the Mother of God and also the World Day of Prayer for Peace. Mary, as the Mother of Jesus, is not only a model of faith and obedience but also a source of maternal care and guidance for all of us as children of God.

As we reflect on her example, we are reminded to embrace our faith with humility and courage, just as she did. May she guide us in our journey, bring us closer to her Son, and inspire us to live lives of service, compassion, and holiness.

As January 1st is a Holy Day of Obligation, Mass will be at 12.10pm and 6pm at St Joseph’s and 6pm at Our Lady of the Rubies, Spring Creek.

Let us begin 2025 with hope, peace, and faith, knowing that with Mary as our Mother, we walk in the grace of God.
