Spring Fair to lift our moods during lockdown By Lawrence Machado Lockdown or no lockdown, next month’s Sri Lanka NSW Catholic Association’s Spring Fair is shaping up to be a joyous and entertaining event. SLNSWCA secretary Christian Don-Rukantha said because of the lockdown, they will be holding their inaugural event online on Saturday, October 2. The event is one of the major events in the association’s calendar and will feature musical and comedy acts, dance routines, magic shows and anything which can be performed online via Zoom. “This is our first Spring Fiesta because we have been in lockdown and haven’t been able to host any physical events,” Christian said. “The purpose is purely for entertainment and to take people’s mind off the lockdown; It is a free event and there is no fundraising initiative.” Christian said the association needs the support of the members and non-members to make it a successful ...

Sri Lankan Chaplain completes first year in Sydney – Catholic Chaplain Fr. Ruwan Pradeep Source: LanCatholic – Quarterly Newsletter of the Sri Lankan New South Wales Catholic Association Volume 1 Issue 1 August 2020 Sri Lankan Catholic Chaplain Fr. Ruwan Pradeep completed one year of his term in July. His first year has been ‘hijacked’ by the COVID-19 pandemic which unfortunately impacted upon the most important period of the Catholic liturgical year when the Sri Lankan Catholic Community would have seen Fr. Ruwan celebrate his first Lent and Easter with them. The usual Palm Sunday outdoor Way of the Cross had to be cancelled as well as the other Easter Triduum services. However this was no impediment to Fr. Ruwan stepping up to the challenge of moving up the technology scale to provide his ministry online. He was open to the SLNSWCA initiative to participate in prayer meetings and deliver ...
