First Live @ FIVE Mass

On Saturday February 13, the vigil of the Feast of the Transfiguration, Footscray Anglican Parish inaugurated it's first Live @ FIVE Mass. With rainbow flags festooning the entrance the Church of St George the Martyr, West Footscray ventured into slightly unknown territory, for Anglicans anyway, namely, the Saturday night Mass. Live @ FIVE aims to be contemporary and welcoming of all people of all ages and states of life.

Our first gathering, while small, was lively. The children enjoyed their own "mountain-top" experience, completing activities in the choir loft, not to mention the sausage sizzle after Mass (always a winner).

Our earnest hope is that Live @ FIVE can provide an opportunity for locals to connect with God and connect with community in a friendly environment.

AMDG!
