Growing Together in Prayer and Worship: Embracing Common Postures at Mass

29 November 2025

During our Year of Prayer, Listening and Discernment, people shared a desire for a deeper and more united experience of worship during the Sunday Eucharist.

In responding to this desire, we’re introducing the use of common postures at Mass, as outlined in the Missal, starting on the First Sunday of Advent. It is hoped that this will help make people feel even more welcome and at home in whatever church in our diocese that they attend the celebration of the Eucharist.

A poster and pew card have been designed outlining these postures with a brief explanation of why we stand, kneel and sit at Mass. These simple aids are meant to help our communities worship as one body, united in prayer before the Lord.

Alongside these printed materials, a short video is also available to help understand the meaning behind the postures at different parts of the celebration of the Eucharist and how they reflect our shared faith.

Perpetual Profession of Vows of Br Simon Fernandez

21 November 2025

At the 11:30am Mass on Sunday, November 23rd, Br. Simon Fernandes of the Presentation Brothers will make Perpetual Profession of Vows. Bishop Fintan will be the chief celebrant and Br. Simon’s Vows will be received by Br. Barry Noel, Congregation Leader of the Presentation Brothers.

The Presentation Brothers are very grateful to Canon John O’Donovan, the priests and people of the Family of Parishes for the opportunity to celebrate this special Mass in the Cathedral.

After three years of initial and formal formation and training, a Presentation Novice makes First Profession of Vows. The Vows professed are Poverty, Chastity and Obedience.

These vows are renewed annually for a period of six years, during which the Brothers undergo further education and studies in the Presentation Brothers' mission and ministry. As he opens himself to the grace of God and deepens his generosity and love for God and neighbour, he arrives at a point where he permanently and publicly makes his Profession of Vows to God.

Brother Simon has arrived at that point where he desires to permanently commit himself to the love and service of God and neighbour through perpetual profession of Vows.

This Mass will be recorded. If anyone wishes not to be filmed, please sit in the back of the church.
