THE REFURBISHMENT OF OUR CHURCH TOILET BLOCK is completed
Our volunteer John Heffernan with the help of Deacon Rafael and Fr Daney have completed the refurbishment our Church Toilet Block. They have been making good use of their skills and talents to update the toilet block during the lockdown.
Many, many thanks to John Heffernan on the work, time and effort put into the Toilet Block Refurbishment work. He has done a wonderful job! John is very valuable contributor and great support to our parish. He had also organised the repairs to the Church Building broken windows (which was difficult) and fixed the presbytery front entry glass panels.
We are very fortunate and grateful to have such talented, skilled, resourceful and dedicated priest, deacon and volunteers.
The Toilet Block is ready to be used.
If you could make a monetary contribution to the Alteration Work of our parish’s Church Toilet Block, it would be most appreciated.
