CEO Jubilarians’ Mass
St Kilian’s Church, Bendigo

"Catholic Education and the world, interact in a context that is culturally and socially diverse. This demands of you courageous fidelity to the charism that distinguishes you as a Catholic Educator." - Bishop Leslie Tomlinson

Mass of the Lord's Supper 2019

“O Sacrament most holy, O Sacrament divine, all praise and all thanksgiving, be every moment Thine!” - Bishop Leslie Tomlinson

Catholic Education Office Sandhurst
Staff Commencement of Year Mass

"This is also an opportunity to reflect on the fact that Catholic Education is a task that we embrace. The child is at the centre of our care, and indeed in our work with others when we work as a team in the child’s best interests. We hope to do this in a spirit of selflessness, gentleness and patience, and in an atmosphere of peace which binds us together." - Bishop Leslie Tomlinson

Vigil Mass of the Solemnity of Christmas
St John of God Hospital  Bendigo

"The Christmas story, however, lifts our aspirations. In it, we find cause for hope and optimism. Christmas glows with a special kind of light. It celebrates the belief that a divine light has been sparked in the world. The point of this light, is a child and we are drawn, irresistibly, to the light He radiates. The sparkle of Christmas reflects a belief that we are capable of achieving and doing good, regardless of wealth or status. The Christmas experience inspires us to transcend our limitations." - Bishop Leslie Tomlinson

CHRISTMAS EVE MASS 2018
Sacred Heart Cathedral

"But any nativity scene, even the simplest, can speak to us. ‘Speak’ is somehow the right word. A crib is silent, nothing moves. But even as we allow ourselves to be drawn into its silence, it speaks to our hearts. It takes time for a crib to address us. We need to stay before it, not saying prayers, but allowing the sense of wonder and astonishment to take us over. To be ‘caught up in the love of the God we cannot see’ is to allow the crib to speak to our hearts rather than to our heads, its very stillness having a resonant eloquence." - Bishop Leslie Tomlinson
