for teens/young people to take part - Good Friday, 11am on the school oval at Kingswood next to Our Lady of Dolours Church. A meaningful way for young people to immerse themselves in the Easter story. We need younger people to take on the roles in this narrated re-enactment of the events of Good Friday. Contact David Kilmartin david@kilmartin.net.au for more info & to volunteer, as soon as possible, please. 10.15am rehearsal on the day for actors. Hot cross buns, tea & coffee to follow in the hall. ALL are welcome to come and watch.
This Good Friday, you are invited to walk together in the spirit of a pilgrimage, inspired by the 2025 Jubilee Year - Pilgrims of Hope. This event is open to all ages, however it has been inspired and designed with young people in mind by COYYA (Catholic Office for Youth and Young Adults). Our journey begins at The Monastery in Urrbrae at 7.30pm, stop for reflection at St Raphael’s, Parkside and then onwards to St Francis Xavier’s Cathedral. The walk is approx 6.5km total. Please register at https://www.trybooking.com/CZHVW to secure your spot as well as nominating for transportation provided from the Cathedral back to The Monastery should you require it.

The parish is revisiting its pastoral plan. One initiative in the pastoral plan is re-energising the Environment Group post Covid. It is proposed that the new group would be named Laudato Si Environment Group utilising the Adelaide Archdiocese document "Caring for our Common Home" as its strategic plan. The group would report to the PPC and be responsible for developing and implementing an action plan for the Emmaus Parish. If anyone is interested in being a part of the group, please email Stephen Shinnick at: emmausppc@eparish.org.au
