Parish

Inspired by the words of St Theresa of Avila we aim to be the Body of Christ for the people of South Tuggeranong and beyond.

‘Christ has no body now but yours. No hands, no feet on earth but yours. Yours are the eyes through which he looks compassion on this world. Yours are the feet with which he walks to do good. Yours are the hands through which he blesses all the world. Yours are the hands, yours are the feet, yours are the eyes, you are his body’.

Sacramental Programs at Corpus Christi Parish, South Tuggeranong

The Sacraments are a wonderful opportunity for parents and children to renew their faith and to discover God, so that we become active members of the Body of Christ. We welcome you and your child into the life of our Parish through the Sacramental Programs.

Your child’s preparation for the reception of Reconciliation, Eucharist and Confirmation are important opportunities for you to pass on your faith on to your child. Through your words, actions, and involvement in parish life, they learn what it means to be part of a faith community.

The Corpus Christi sacramental program is a parish based, school supported program. You are the first teacher of your child’s faith. In their preparation for the sacraments we, the parish and school community, will support you in the preparation of Reconciliation, Eucharist and Confirmation. However, we rely on your involvement in home learning and presenting your child to the faith community at a weekend Mass.

Students attending one of the parish schools of St Francis of Assisi, St Clare of Assisi and Holy Family, classroom lessons will be part of the support offered to you in your preparation of your child for the sacraments.
