A picture paints a thousand words: Here we see the talented creations of @CCCWestHoxton Year 8 Religion students who captured the key themes of Jesus' teachings through art.

The Christmas tree and the Nativity scene are signs of hope, especially in this difficult time. Let us be sure we do not stop at the sign, but get to the meaning, that is, to Jesus, to the love of God that He revealed to us, the infinite goodness that he made shine on the world.

Delivery to the @HouseofWelcome from our @CCCWestHoxton Year 9 and 10 students!! @D_Fetterplace @MrsCNolan #LoveLikeChrist

Mother Teresa, tireless worker of charity, pray for us, so that our criterion for action might be gratuitous love, offered freely to everyone without distinction of language, culture, race, or religion.

God does not love you because you behave well. He loves you, plain and simple. His love is unconditional; it does not depend on you.

God does not choose us because of our “goodness”, but precisely because we are and we feel small.

One of the first hopes that Cardinal Clancy expressed was the great need to “get the Good News to the kids.” We continue to live this through our College Scriptural theme where we have are inspired to “serve one another with whatever gift each of you has received” (1 Peter 4:10).

Let's look at the "saints next door" who, with simplicity, respond to evil with good, have the courage to love their enemies and to pray for them.

It's a cause very close to our heart, and tomorrow we honour the memory of Mr Bell through our annual Beanies for Brain Cancer fundraiser. Students will be raising much needed funds for the @MarkHughesFdn and #MHFBeanie

9 RE - Search for Meaning #CCCRE

Only those who see with the heart see things well, because they know how to “look into” each person: to see a brother or sister apart from his or her mistakes, hope amid difficulty. They see God everywhere.

In this Sunday's Gospel (Mt 10:26-33) Jesus invites us not to be afraid, to be strong and confident in the face of life's challenges, because even when we encounter setbacks, our lives rest firmly in God’s hands, who loves us and takes care of us.

If we draw God’s mercy, forgiveness, and tenderness from the #HeartOfJesus, then our heart too will gradually become more patient, more generous, and more merciful.

In our darkest moments, when we sin or are disoriented, we always have an appointment with God. We do not need to be afraid, because God will change our hearts and give us the blessing reserved for those who allow Him to change them. #GeneralAudience

Congratulations to Principal Br Nicholas Harsas (NSW) & former Principal, now Regional Leader of Sisters of St Joseph Sr Margaret Cleary (SA) for being recognised in the Queen's Birthday honors list.

We are so excited to have @mattmahermusic join us for Mass this Sunday. Come worship and pray with us on this feast of the Ascension. YouTube.com/frrobgalea

Today we remember the great faith and example of #JohnPaulII. Let us hear the echo of his appeal to open wide the doors to Christ, to not be afraid. Let us walk joyfully along the paths of the world, following the footsteps of the giant who has preceded us. We are never alone!
