Sample of evaluations from Alpha 2:
I enjoyed every week with my group. Such a great atmosphere and structure to the meetings. Everyone was warm and friendly. I have seen a huge shift in my practice and daily life.
Great meetings, loved my group. The retreat was great. The video clips were very moving.
I found it a much better experience than I was expecting.
Most uplifting and raised awareness of the fruits of the Holy Spirit. Exceptional course, very good for any level of faith and Christianity.
I learnt new things about the Holy Spirit, which have stayed with me in my life now. A new depth and dimension to prayer.
It was refinding myself in a more deeper spiritual way of knowing God loves me always.
I really enjoyed the Alpha. It was the highlight of my week, coming to sessions, meeting and making friends. I enjoyed the uplifting experience, group discussions and the wonderful atmosphere of togetherness and spiritual encouragement.
It gave a clearer perspective on things. Strengthened my prayer and quiet time with the Lord. Really enjoyed our small groups, listening to sharing and experiences. I felt the Spirit most in the sharing with my group.
Updated Safeguarding Requirements for Children & Young People
Safeguarding requirements have changed in the light of new information from the Office of the Children’s Guardian and the Safeguarding and Ministerial Integrity Office of the Archdiocese of Sydney.
Volunteers involved as PSSOs, Acolytes, Ministers of the Word, Extraordinary Ministers of Communion, Wardens, Catechists, Little Church/Children’s Liturgy leaders, youth ministries such as Encounter, Elevate and Antioch and in Outreach must:
provide a Working With Children (WWC) number for verification by the Parish.
complete an appropriate Safeguarding Training course, followed by Refresher Training every three years.
sign a Code of Conduct Form.
complete a Volunteer Registration Form.
Other volunteers no longer need to provide a WWC number for their role. However, in the ongoing quest to develop awareness of Safeguarding and its significance across the Parish, some volunteers must still:
complete an appropriate Safeguarding Training course, followed by Refresher Training every three years
sign a Code of Conduct Form.
complete a Volunteer Registration Form.
New volunteers will be advised of the specific requirements for their role when they apply.

All Saints Parish Prayer during the Pandemic
Merciful God of hope and life, during this time of pandemic,
May we hold to attitudes and behaviours that profess our faith in Jesus Christ,
May we act with care and responsibility to keep our community safe,
May we be beacons of hope to those feeling overwhelmed and fearful.
Heal those who are infected by the virus,
Guide healthcare professionals and researchers in their work,
Inspire politicians, business and community leaders by your wisdom,
Bring those who have died to yourself and comfort their loved ones.
We make this prayer through Our Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
Mary, Mother of God. Pray for us.
All Saints. Pray for us.
