The Parish Liturgy Group is responsible for planning and coordinating liturgical arrangements which are common across the whole Parish, shared resource and special occasion Liturgies and to bring a sense of togetherness and involvement of the various aspects of our Parish into our Liturgies (like the Sacramental Programs, RCIA).

The Parish Liturgy Group doesn’t usurp or replace the detailed planning that goes into the liturgies in each of our communities, be they school or church but rather the Group is responsible to help and coordinate liturgical matters that affect or go cross the entire Parish. The Group includes representatives involved in liturgies from each of the 3 church communities and our two schools in the Parish. The Liturgy Group is sensitive to and doesn’t seek to change the ‘flavour’ of the Liturgy practices in our communities.

A non-exclusive list of matters for the Parish Liturgy Group includes: 

  • Annual planning for Parish  Liturgies and major feasts (like Easter and Christmas)
  • coordination of the music, sacramental programs and RCIA in our Masses
  • coordination of the training of acolytes and servers, Eucharist Ministers, readers;
  • special occasion liturgies (like the Parish Mass)
  • sharing resources and communication across the various aspects of Liturgy and catechesis (like musicians and music) 
  • working with and developing the Liturgical practices in our Parish  with the newly formed Parish Leadership team

The Liturgy Working Groups in each Church community attend to the specific matters for their respective community. For example, Liturgy working groups in each Church community attend to: 

  • ensuring that each Mass or other liturgy in the respective church is properly planned and prepared in advance. 
  • various rosters for readers, Eucharistic Ministers, altars servers, Acolytes in that church
  • altar and church preparation (sacristy matters ) for the respective church
  • behind the scene organisation – banners, candles, books, flowers,

With the foregoing, the Parish Liturgy Group has been formed by: 

  • The Priests of the Parish, led by the Parish Priest
  • Religious educators from our Parish Schools
  • Representatives of the Catechist in our Parish
  • Our Sacramental Program Coordinators
  • Our RCIA Program coordinators
  • Music planners and coordinators for each community
  • 2 members from each of our church communities who coordinate  the liturgies in their community
