Welcome to our website....Let it be both an entrée into our community and an ongoing source of information about how we try to live out our vision which is “To Follow The Example Of Jesus in word, deed and service.” – I hope you accept that that’s a goal and not a boast about where we are now!
I want to give you a bit more of a welcome than this so, if you’d like more… click here. |

QofA SCHOOL - Parish Masses
Students in Years 3-6 will continue to attend Parish Masses on Fridays at 9am. This is a wonderful tradition at QofA and the students really enjoyed them last term. We thank Father Joe for engaging our students in the Mass and our parishioners who willingly participate in fostering Parish-School connections. This term, our students will be writing and reading the prayers of intercession at these masses. All families are welcome to attend these events and we also welcome extended family members and parishioners, as we Live in Faith together in our community. |
RECONCILIATION ACTION PLAN
Evangelisation Brisbane, with the support of Murri Ministries held the first of a series of five Reconciliation Action Plan Truth-Telling workshops at Queen of Apostles Stafford on the 23rd March 2024. Participants came from a number of parishes in the dioceses, to share their journey of reconciliation and unity and workshopped ideas for actions within their own parishes. Guest speaker Brad Jarro, a Bidjara and Ghungalu man shared his personal family story, discussing how laws and policies have impacted Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples since the 1800’s. Members of the Social Justice group and Father Joe were also in attendance. SOS!!!! Vinnie’s Winter Blanket Appeal!!!
