Prayer of the Parish of Unanderra
 In the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, with the heavenly protection of Mary, conceived without sin, may my life this day be guided away from all that would harm me, may the community of faith that I belong to continue to grow, may we all, young and old, remain close to the Saviour every day.
I offer myself, all my actions, words and hopes, to the glory of God, and to the service of others.
May I hear the word of the Lord with joy and may I be generous in responding to the will of God. |

Recently we have developed a new parish website. After about five year’s use the old website is now retired and living a quiet life, just as I hope to in about 28 years time. This new website has been developed steadily over the past few months and will be subject to ongoing development.
This year should be a bit more of a normal year, after all the special events of last year, with an unusually early Easter and the very big (and special) events associated with World Youth Day, which really should be called World Youth Fortnight.
I am always appreciative of the generosity and skills of many parishioners, including those who maintain the parish website. There are many means of involvement in parish life, which all contributes to the sense of belonging to Christ, everyone being a part of the whole body.
Click here for our new parish website.
Peace and blessings,
Fr Mark O’Keefe PP
