Children's Liturgy of the Word - St. Bernard's

Children's Liturgy of the Word takes place in the St. Bernard's Community Center and introduces children who have not yet made their First Holy Communion to the Word of God in the context of a liturgical format that follows the Liturgy of the Word at Holy Mass. The prayers and readings follow the same sequence, including the Kyrie, Gloria (in season), the Gospel, the Creed and Petitions. The Gospel is presented from a Children's Lectionary in simplified English for better understanding. An activity, reflection or craft follows the Gospel in order to deepen the children's comprehension and engagement with the Word.

ESM Youth - Friday Mass and Eucharistic Adoration at All Saints

The ESM Youth are warmly invited to First Friday Mass at All Saints (18.00 h) in the Blessed Sacrament Chapel. Mass will be followed by Eucharistic Adoration.

Eucharistic Adoration at St. Bernard's

Come join us for Eucharistic Adoration, beginning with the Rosary and followed by silent adoration. Those attending are given the opportunity to pray the Rosary in their native languages, while all respond in English.

Our intentions on Mondays are for vocations to the priesthood and the religious life.

 

Eucharistic Adoration for Life at St. Bernard's

Please join us for an adoration evening for life on every second Wednesday of the month from 20:00-21:00. The evening will take place at St. Bernard parish and will be a chance to pray for an end to abortion and a renewed respect for life. We want to pray for the women, men, healthcare providers, politicians, families and friends who are affected by abortion. Let us unite in prayer for a restored culture of life and love!
