Ceremonies

Ceremonies are sacred events and we believe that the Spirit of God is present and active through these actions and prayers.  Ceremonies are celebrated in a way that respects both the Catholic tradition and Aboriginal culture – a coming together of two ways. These ceremonies call us to be strong and true in faith and culture.
