We already have numbers of families involved in groups, and care of children is decided and arranged by the group itself. Groups are encouraged to plan special events that involve children. Home Groups are for those people looking for the opportunity to meet with other Christians on a frequent and personal level, a chance to share the journey that 'morning tea' can never provide. Home Groups are a part of the total experience of church, not a replacement. Members meet each Sunday with the whole parish community in the focus of the catholic faith, the Eucharist.
Experience shows that they add to the vitality and community of the whole church.
The Home Group network is supervised by the parish priest, who meets with the group co-ordinators each month. Parish Council holds the ultimate responsibility for the network's oversight and care. The four groups are listed below with their co-ordinators and meeting times. If there is no contents list on the left of your screen, click here to get the full St Mary Magdalene's home page.
