I have just returned home from a
beautiful autumn day spent with our Sandpiper Family Group at
Ballina. We were blessed, this week, with having a visit
to our parish of a group of young sisters from Canberra who are
in the community for the Missionaries of God's Love. They have
been working with the youth of the parish in preparation
for WYD 2008 and they came to our family group barbeque before
heading home.
We live in a beautiful part of the world
up here in Ballina and I realise how lucky I am to be part of this
group. There are lots of serious discussions on current issues
but there are also many laughs and friendship sharing.
I have just been reading Fr Peter McGrath's article in the Catholic
Leader and realise how much I have to thank him for setting up the
Family Groups
Blessings
