Dads

Overview

The evenings of recollection for dads and young professionals have the purpose of helping us to live better our faith in the midst of our work and family responsibilities. They are led by Fr Anthony Khoudair in Wollemi College on the Monday after the first Friday of the month, and in the same week, on the Wednesday at Mirrabooka, and on the second Friday at St Aidan’s Church Rooty Hill.
