Fr Anthony will undergo complex spinal surgery in Brisbane on Thursday 25 November.
Fr Paul McDonald will celebrate Mass at 12 noon on Thursday 25 November in the Sacred Heart Church as we pray for Fr Anthony’s successful surgery and recovery.
We invite parishioners to remember Fr Anthony in prayer throughout the day on Thursday. As well as Mass, the Sacred Heart Church will be open through the day on Thursday from 8 am to 7 pm for private prayer (entry via side door car park side).
Fr Anthony thanks you all for your prayers, your cards and well wishes. He was overwhelmed by the parcels of cards and letters he has received. Cards and notes may continue to be left at the Parish Office and we will regularly forward them to him. We’ll keep you up to date when there is news to share and ask that you please respect Fr Anthony’s privacy. Please be aware that visitors are restricted to Fr Anthony’s immediate family and his support team only; noting too that even this is limited as no-one from NSW is able to visit due to the QLD covid restrictions.
