Dear Parishioners,

Happy Advent! 

Maranatha, come Lord Jesus, come.

We have resumed our Weekend Masses with some limitations. It is great to welcome everyone back after so long. 

In the meanwhile, we are continuing with our online masses too. Thanks to the commitment of our camera crew Kevin and Matt, our Choir by Gen and Zoe and all our volunteers for their contribution in making our Mass possible.

Please celebrate with fellow parishioners...

Looking forward to seeing you all soon. Take care and stay safe.

God Bless,   Dispin

The COVID-19 pandemic has seriously affected our parish finances. We understand some parishioners are suffering financially too. But many have asked how they can give, now that there is no possibility of using the envelope system or making a contribution to the first collection which pays for our priest, Fr Dispin, and sick and retired priests.

You can go online and make a donation to one or both collections through your own bank account. Or you can call the Parish Office and make a payment via your credit/debit card.

Please make sure you include your envelope number & surname in the transaction reference field when contributing to the second collection.
Details are:
First Collection -        Account Name: St Johns Presbytery Account
                                  BSB  083343      ACCT NO.  515 469 035
Second Collection -   Account Name:  St Johns Church Account
                                  BSB  083347      ACCT NO. 676 841 942
                                  Reference field : Envelope number and Surname
                                  (contact the Parish office if you don't know your env no.)
If you are not part of the Stewardship program you can still make a payment as a donation or ring/email the office and join the program.

You can also mail a cheque, (cheque for 1st collection made out to St Johns Presbytery account, cheque for Stewardship made out to St Johns Church Account), or mentioning the split between the 1st and 2nd collections. Please mention your name and envelope number.
If you have any questions about this, please ring the parish office 9401 6366.

Fr Dispin will be recording Sunday Masses. They will normally be available by 6:00pm each Saturday. The text of his homilies will also be available on each Sunday.

We come before you Lord as the Parish Family of St John the Evangelist. Thanks you for calling us to this community. Through Your Holy Spirit lead us as we turn to You for guidance, courage and faith. Keep us faithful to all that is true and help us to willingly follow You, so that we may become a more loving, forgiving and affirming community. Continue to nourish and inspire us by Your love so that we may bring peace, hope and justice to our families and to our world. Together may we journey with You and with one another. 

St John pray for us. St James Pray for us.
