What’s happening? A first report from Fr Paul Fyfe SJ – the new PP
The end of the Church year seems an appropriate occasion to report on how I see Christ’s kingdom being furthered here at St Canice. While this deals with roughly my first 6 months, it is important to begin by acknowledging the achievements of this parish over the past 130 years, as well as the vital leadership and contributions given by others since I arrived: it’s not a ‘one-person show’.
St Canice’s visits JRS Westmead
‘People seeking asylum’ are desperate. They are simply falling through the cracks into a limbo as government continues to cut whatever benefits there once were. Despite this, many of these people show a remarkable resilience. They are encouraged to become leaders and form groups amongst themselves where they can help each other. One of the greatest things we can offer is to ‘journey’ with them.
World Day of the Poor
Fr Gaetan Perreira SJ encourages us in his homily “to take sides with the poor – a difficult challenge. A mission focus on a life of equality, justice, and community. It’s in listening and learning from these people. To see the world from their view as victims, thus forcing me to take a stand for them.

Confirmation 2019
Bishop Terry Brady confirmed thirteen young people at St Canice’s this morning. In addressing the newly confirmed, Bishop Terry used the example of Australia’s next saint, Eileen O’Connor by dwelling on her example of holiness and saintliness that she demonstrated in the very short life. – (Eileen was the Founder of Our Lady’s Nurses of the Poor.)
