Together, in Christ's love, for others.

Last night, our LNS Parish community gathered once again at St. Leonard’s Church for a beautiful evening of silence, prayer, Scripture, reflection, and music before the Blessed Sacrament. Every second Tuesday of the month, we come together as a community for Eucharistic Adoration, setting aside the busyness of life to simply be with the Lord. We bring with us our joys and struggles, our hopes and worries, our gratitude and our needs, both personal and communal, and place them

After a few weeks of rest following our refreshing LNS Young Adults Group (YAG) Retreat last month, our young adult community joyfully gathered once again to begin the second half of our 2026 Formation Evenings. What a wonderful way to resume our journey together, with an inspiring formation night that also fittingly concluded the Vocations Awareness Week in the Diocese of Broken Bay. Held on Sunday, 9 August 2026, at St. Leonard's Church Hall following the 6:00 PM Mass, the

There are moments in life when our calendars are full, our minds are restless, and our hearts quietly long for something more. We become so accustomed to rushing from one responsibility to another that we often forget how to simply stop, breathe, and be with God. It was into this reality that Jesus spoke His timeless invitation: "Come away by yourselves to a deserted place and rest a while." (Mark 6:31) On Saturday, 18 July 2026, our LNS Young Adults (YAG) accepted that invit

Sunday, 24 May 2026, will long remain in our hearts. Despite the cold weather, steady rain, and many apologies from members who were unable to attend, the Holy Spirit had other plans. Around 22 young adults gathered at St. Leonard’s Church Hall, Naremburn, after the 6:00 pm Mass, and what unfolded was a beautiful reminder that when people come together with open hearts, God always shows up. Our Pentecost-themed Young Adult Formation Session carried the powerful theme: “From F

Last night at St. Leonard's Church Hall, something new, and long hoped for, came to life. The launch of our LNS Young Adult Group 2026 was nothing short of a blessing.
