For the fast approaching Feast of St. Ignatius of Loyola, Founder of the Jesuits, we bring you a Triduum of reflections, on Wed 28th, Thur 29th and Fri 30th July, after the evening Mass, from 7.40 pm to 8.30 pm, online. The Novena prayers to St. Ignatius will begin from this Thurs 22nd of July.

We invite you to join us in reflection and thanksgiving.
During this extended Lockdown, the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, St. Peter’s Unit, has expanded its works of charity, thus depleting all its Funds. We therefore make an Appeal for contributions online to support the charitable works of the SSVP. Details for online contributions are available on our Parish Website Homepage.
