St George's Church fete at Marreba raises funds

St George's Hall held a December fete to aid church funds with decorated stalls, raffles, and competitions. Parishioners enjoyed nail driving, treasure guessing, and prizewinners earned a range of gifts. Total takings near 185 pounds reflect strong patronage and lively entertainment.

Confirmation Service at St Clare's Church

On Sunday afternoon the Bishop of Cooktown presided at St Clare's Roman Catholic Church for the confirmation of several candidates. The ceremony was solemn with candidates in white, a Mary Children procession, a guard of honour by the Hibernian Society, and benediction conducted by Rev Father Clancy. The church was crowded and the mood profound as His Lordship offered guidance for the road ahead.
