ARCHDIOCESE OF DURBAN NEWS & EVENTS

SOCIETY OF ST VINCENT DE PAUL

In support of a fundraiser for the SSVP (Society of St Vincent de Paul) our Archbishop attended a special gathering this last Saturday at St Theresa’s under a beautiful clear blue sky.

Make a difference in people’s lives and support your local parish SSVP, where your time, talent, and treasure are spent to feed the hungry, clothe the naked, heal the sick, and comfort the lonely.

CHANCERY STAFF RETREAT

The Chancery staff of the Archdiocese took some rare time off from their usually busy schedules to leave the hustle and bustle of office work behind and focus exclusively on their spiritual growth and human development.

Coming together at the beautiful beachside retreat centre of St Dominic’s on the Bluff, the staff were led by Archbishop Jwara CMM in thoughtful reflection accompanied by prayer, praise, and worship.

PARISH BLESSING

A most joyful celebration was held at Sacred Heart Parish in Oakford this last weekend with Archbishop Jwara CMM where the Church was blessed and the community rejoiced in prayer and worship.

CLERGY RETREAT 2024

The Diocesan clergy of the Archdiocese gathered at the South Coast beachfront retreat centre of Coolock House for prayer.

The atmosphere was one of deep contemplation and personal introspection as the clergy were led by the powerful reflections of their retreat master.

Holy Mass was celebrated daily along with Adoration and Benediction, while the sound of the crashing surf and the beauty of nature led all into a meditative mindset far from the busyness of everyday life.

Theme: Follow Me 📖 

Retreat Master: Fr Thabiso Ledwaba

Pray for, and support, our Archbishop and Auxiliary Bishop, your parish priests, their assistants, and our chaplains, on their mission to follow the Lord who called them all into service and sacrifice.

OUR LADY – PRAY FOR US

According to the wishes of His Grace, Archbishop Jwara CMM, please would all visitors to this site and all clergy/parishioners throughout the Archdiocese of Durban pray for a peaceful resolution to the Middle Eastern Conflict as well as to the conflict in Eastern Europe (Russia/Ukraine). We implore the aid of Our Lady to bring leaders of nations to the negotiating table, and to turn the hearts of all men towards reconciliation. 

Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death, Amen.

From this moment I entrust these initiatives to the maternal intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, asking her to sustain our efforts and those of humanity in order to achieve peace.

We ask you, Queen of Peace,
to help us respond with the power of truth and love
to the new and unsettling challenges of the present moment.
Help us also to pass through this difficult period,
that disturbs the serenity of so many people,
and to work without delay to build every day and everywhere
a genuine culture of peace.

  • – Pope St John Paul II
