Lectio on the Scriptures for Lent
During the season of Lent, we are invited to turn our mindas and hearts to God. One way of doing this is to participate in Lectio of the Scriptures. Anne Bailey will be facilitating two groups each week on Tuesday nights after Mass from 16th Feburary till 23 March and on Wednesday mornings from 17th February till 24th March.

St. Anthony's in the Market-place is exactly that. The church is nestled amongst the shops and close to the main western railway line in the town of Toongabbie NSW. The name Toongabbie comes from the Aboriginal language and it means: the Meeting of the Waters or Near the Water.
We are a Catholic Christian Community striving to be a place of welcome and belonging and participative worship. We aspire to be sensitive to those who feel isolated and alienated. Self-help groups as well as other faith-community groups fulfil a big need in nurturing people and providing people with meaning and a belief-system.
The Sunday Eucharist is at the core of our faith. By following the Common Lectionary over a three year cycle, our community opens the Scriptures to reveal the wonder of Christ still working to bring about His Kingdom. The other Sacraments of the Church - Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist, Reconciliation, Marriage, Ordination and the Anointing of the Sick mark God's blessing on us at key moments in our lives as Catholics.
As a community, we seek to grow in a maturing relationship with Jesus Christ. You are invited to find out more by exploring this website or calling the Parish Office on 9631-3316.
Your Parish Team at St. Anthony's, Toongabbie: Paul Marshall-Parish Priest, Anne Bailey-Pastoral Associate, Shirley Stewart and Theresa Brazell (Secretaries).
