All of us experience in our lives moments of loss and grief; times when we are reminded of the reality of death and how we respond. Many people fear death, are not sure what to say to someone who is grieving, or know what to do when someone close to them dies.

Beginning 17th October (on a Saturday morning), Centacare in conjunction with Father Paul from the Mudgee Parish are offering an opportunity for gentle and guided Conversations on Dying, Death and Bereavement in Mudgee. Over four sessions, we will journey together through topics such as mourning, grief and death, to practicalities (funeral planning etc.), risks (complex grief), self-care and spirituality.

This Conversation programme allows, over a cuppa, you to express your views, to hear others' views, and to learn what the Church teaches around these difficult topics. There is no fee for this programme.

If you would like to discuss the programme more or express your interest in being part of these Conversations, please call Louise Hennessey from Centacare 0419 631 781.

Stained Glass Window Update

The Stained Glass Window will be reinstalled during September.

There may be a few days when the church can't be used while the glass is reinstalled, but for now, all Masses will be celebrated in St Mary's.
