Sun 9 March: Soul of the City Festival Fundraiser

This Soul of the City Festival Fundraiser is an opportunity for us all to give to the communities we live in.  The 4 Mayors of Auckland are being approached and asked to select a charity of their choice who will receive the funds raised.  Further information will be posted out to all the groups. 

Following this Festival, join Bishop Pat and other WYD Pilgrims as we process the Blessed Sacrament from Aotea Square to St Patrick’s Cathedral in a public witness of our faith!

And when we get to the Cathedral we’ll be celebrating a World Youth Day Mass from 4.30pm – The theme for this Mass – “The Spirit Gives Life”
