The Diocese has released a survey to understand and plan the strategy for Youth Ministry and activities. This survey looks to understand the relationship young people have with the church and what they would see as a need to grow in the faith, build lasting relationships and grow as a disciple in Christ. The survey is for youth up to the age of 35, as well as parents of younger children.
We would also like to know if you are interested in receiving the upcoming Youth Newsletter and if you would like to be involved more officially in Youth Ministry, assisting or leading in the future – you can also note that in the survey.

The diocese is looking for updated photographs from each parish showing particularly the outside of the building and preferably during a significant feast or event. For example a cross procession on a feast day showing clergy and parishioners would be ideal.
These will be used in the future updating of the Diocesan Website. Please email applicable photos to youth.rocor.anz@gmail.com.
