From Fr Satheesh

Dear Parishioners,

Over the next 12 months, the parish will need to replace a number old and dated computers, for security reasons. We are in need of a used laptop, desktop, deskside and screens in good working condition. If you have a device that you no longer use and would be able to donate, it will greatly benefit the parish’s needs.

Your generosity, as always, is deeply appreciated. If you’re able to assist, please contact the parish office on EMAIL: parishoffice@ffcp.org.au or TEL: 9451 5097.

Thank you for your continued support and kindness.
Fr. Satheesh Antony OSH, PP.

Kind regards,

Susanne Bragge – Parent Engagement Coordinator
