Farewell Mass for Fr Olek Stirrat
Farewell Mass for Fr Olek Stirrat
April 21, 2025.
THANK YOU everyone for coming out to the Farewell Mass and shared lunch for Fr Olek today. What a beautiful way to show Fr Olek how grateful we are for his ministry and how much we love him.
A big shout out to the hospitality team once again for helping with set up and pack up this afternoon. Thank you to David and his team at Tenison Woods College for their generosity in letting us use the school facilities for this event.
"Leaving the South East has not been easy, and in a recent conversation with a priest, he gently said, “Leaving your first parish breaks your heart.” How true those words rang in my soul. For in each of you, I have found more than a congregation—I have found a family. Thank you for your generosity toward me, for your warmth, and for the quiet, daily witness of true Christian discipleship. You have been my pride and my joy. Please keep me in your prayers, as I surely will keep you in mine. This is not goodbye, but au revoir—until we meet again, May God bless you richly and keep you always."

Discovering God’s Covenant Love: A 7-Week Journey Through
Discovering God’s Covenant Love: A 7-Week Journey Through
A Father Who Keeps His Promises.
A Father Who Keeps His Promises.
Over the past seven weeks, our parish community came together to explore A Father Who Keeps His Promises by renowned Catholic theologian Scott Hahn. This enriching study helped us dive deep into the heart of Scripture, tracing God’s covenant love from the beginning of creation to its fulfillment in Jesus Christ.
Each week, we reflected on key moments in salvation history and saw how God’s unbreakable promises reveal His steadfast love for humanity. Through lively discussions, prayer, and reflection, we grew in our understanding of how these covenants shape our faith and relationship with God.
Throughout the study, we explored:
Creation & the Fall – The beginning of God’s relationship with humanity 🌍🍏
The Flood & Noah’s Covenant – A promise of renewal and hope 🌊🌈
Abraham’s Call to Trust – Faith in God’s promises ⭐
Moses & the Covenant at Sinai – God’s law and His presence among His people 🔥
David’s Eternal Kingdom – A royal covenant pointing to the Messiah 👑
The New Covenant in Christ – God’s ultimate promise fulfilled in Jesus ✝️
Each session offered profound insights into Scripture, helping us see the unity of God’s plan and the depth of His love throughout history.
Couldn’t join us live? No worries! All sessions are available on our YouTube channel so you can watch and reflect at your own pace.
