Welcome to Living Waters Catholic Parish. United in the Risen Jesus we journey together in the Light of Christ as a hope filled people. One parish which includes the Catholic communities of Bribie Island, Beachmere, Caboolture, Woodford and Kilcoy, we are a people of Christian faith, a people who care for each other and reach out to others in Jesus Christ with the mission of peace, justice and love of neighbour. With the Church in Australia at this time we are praying that the Spirit guide us through the Plenary Council, and hopefully await the outcomes of the Council for our way into the future. So, as in all our prayers we seek to fulfil Archbishop Mark’s words in the Decree of Establishment of Living Waters Parish:
"In John’s Gospel, Jesus offers ‘living water’ to the Samaritan woman at Jacob’s well. May the rivers and waterways of this new parish always be a reminder of Jesus’ promise to this ‘living water’ and may it become, in the people, a spring of water welling up to eternal life.
May Our Lady, Mother of God and Mother of the Church, intercede with the Father for rich blessings to come to Living Waters Parish through Jesus Christ and in the power of the Holy Spirit."

STOP the Violence
END the Silence
Women’s Breakfast

We’re off and running — with names collected last weekend, catering is now in motion and the countdown to a great morning has begun.
In recognition of Domestic and Family Violence Prevention Month this May, we’ll be hosting a “blind book” sale during the breakfast, with all proceeds supporting a local domestic violence organisation that provides care and assistance to women and children whose lives have been affected by difficult and devastating situations. We have been incredibly supported by our local business on the Island, so please come prepared to support us in our endeavours to help others ~ and you never know, you may get lucky yourself in that support!

Emmaus Prayer for Our Daily Walk
Lord, walk with me on the roads that feel uncertain, in the moments when hope seems thin and my steps grow slow.
Be the quiet strength beside me, the presence I may not always notice but always need.
Open my eyes, as You opened theirs; softly, patiently, in the simple rhythms of my day, in shared meals, in small mercies, in the graces I often rush past.
Let my heart burn again with Your nearness. Teach me gratitude that steadies my spirit ~ in each breath, each kindness, each hidden blessing along the way.
Stay close, Lord.
Shine through my ordinary moments.
Guide my feet with Your peace until I learn to recognize You in every road I walk and every person I meet.

(Note change at St Peter’s) St Peter’s ~ 4.45pm – 5.30pm

Social Justice Statement February 2026
The Cost of Our Living: Economic and Social Justice for the Common Good
The Statement highlights the very real challenges facing Australian families and communities amid rising living costs. Across communities, rising living costs are making everyday necessities -like meals, energy bills, and housing – hard to afford, placing strain on young people, parents, and older Australians alike.
Download the Statement
View the National launch on YouTube (14 mins)
The launch highlights a powerful and timely message: behind the rising cost of living are real people making difficult choices every day — skipping meals, postponing medical care, and living with the constant worry of losing their home. These are not isolated stories. For far too many, this is becoming an everyday reality.
The statement invites us to look beyond the statistics, to recognise the human dignity at stake, and to reflect on how we, as a community shaped by faith, compassion, and solidarity, are called to respond for the common good.
To find out about all the wonderful things happening in our parish community, along with a list of coming events, please access our latest parish bulletin, via the Newsletter Archive button below.
