Welcome to
Saint Kilian's Parish Bendigo!
25th Sunday in Ordinary Time
22 September 2024
In today’s Gospel, Jesus gives us a glimpse of what walking that path of righteousness, mentioned in the first and second readings, looks like in action — welcoming and serving the vulnerable in our midst, especially defenseless children, the despairing poor, the mentally ill, and the marginalized. Jesus also teaches his apostles that child-like humility and selfless service make one great in the eyes of God.

St Kilian's is an Earthcare Parish.
St Kilian's Parish Community is responding to Catholic Earthcare Australia, which is a program of Caritas Australia that responds to the ‘cry of the earth’ to safeguard creation and provide a voice for victims of environmental injustice.
The parish responds to the call of Laudato si’, the environmental encyclical in which Pope Francis invited Catholics all around the world to reflect, pray and take action to protect our common home.
In response, the parish has created a community garden where we can practice looking after our Mother Earth. Join the Community Garden Team every Wednesday morning at 10am-12nn.
