Living our Catholic Faith through involvement in our parishes and community brings many blessings. We are nourished by the support and friendship of others, we can feel energized and enthused about making a difference in the lives of those around us and as we reflect on our involvement in the light of faith, we can come to see God working in and through us.
In this website, we outline some ways in which you might like to become involved and highlight various upcoming events in which you may like to take part.
Remember to keep in touch with faith, ministry & spiritual formation through Vishwas Kiran Catechetical Centre.
