COVID-19 RESTRICTIONS
Due to Covid-19 restrictions, we are currently in a trial for sanitizing the church using anti-bac wipes. We have provided 1 pack of wipe for each seating row.
- Please take 1 wipe only and close the lid.
- Please use the Anti-Bac Wipes to sanitize your seating area AFTER Mass / Liturgy.
- Used wipes may then be disposed of in the bin located at the door as you leave the Church.
Many thanks for helping to keep our Church safe to use.
PARISH SYNODAL MEETING 2022
In the future our Parish groups want an inclusive and consultative Church.
MISSION :
- Ecumenism to be encouraged by sharing Bible studies, including the Alpha Course and asking University chaplains to draw on the religious diversity of their universities.
- We should be more focused on the Gospels and Scriptures.
- The Church needs a different approach to be able to reach the marginalised, the poor, the homeless and all those excluded.
- The process of decision-making needs to include the laity, both Women and Men and emphasize the importance of Environmental Sustainability.
PARTICIPATION :
- Encourage Spokespeople for the Church, usually clerics, to listen and consult with their community before arriving at their decisions.
- Nominations for the Parish Council should be advertised in the Parish Bulletin and parishioners to be personally and publicly encouraged to take up positions. New appointees to be welcomed and blessed at Mass.
- All lay ministries and committees to be listed on the Parish website with an email link to co-ordinators.
- Facilitate communication between all groups to encourage more involvement and discussion.
- Dates and times of Council and Committee meetings should be listed on the Parish website.
- A mechanism (a suggestion box) is needed to allow issues and topics to be discussed.
COMMUNION :
- Mass is too doctrinal and should relate more to the present life of parishioners.
- Liturgy needs to be more inclusive. Women, who form the majority in the Church and who show a “Jesus” like approach to their faith, should play a more central role in the Church.

HOLY ROSARY PARISH NEDLANDS SAFEGUARDING OFFICER
For those who don’t know me my name is Hanz and I have been part of the Holy Rosary parish for the past 16 years. As a young boy I have attended Loreto Nedlands to then finally graduate from John XXIII College in 2012. I completed my University studies in Business and today I work as a project coordinator for a construction firm.
In my life growing up in Perth the church has always been a place where I could reflect on my day to day challenges and pray for the things that mattered to me the most. I feel at Nedlands we are so lucky to have such a close-knit community where many people from all walks of life and all ages can come together and practice our faith in a community that cares so much for the wellbeing of one and another and the greater good.
As a child growing up, I have cherished many happy memories as a faithful young parishioner. From being reconciled on this very altar, to taking part in catechist classes and serving for Father as an Acolyte. Like me, and many of those who grew up with me, we hope to continue to see our church as a collective that safeguards and promotes the welfare of children, young and vulnerable individuals.
In April 2014 the Archbishop Timothy Costello initiated the Safeguarding program in response to the Royal Commission into Institutional Child abuse. Since then with the help of many experts in social services and child protection agencies, the safeguarding program has established many policies and standards to take preventive measures in ensuring that the Perth Catholic Archdiocese plays an integral role in protecting all children and vulnerable individuals.
As a safeguarding officer my role is to facilitate this program for the Holy Rosary Parish and be a source of support and information on all matters of safeguarding children and vulnerable individuals in the parish.
Should you need to contact me please click here, my details will in the Parish Bulletin every week and on the Parish website.
Thank you and God Bless.
