🛠️ HAVE YOU EVER SEEN AN ALTAR BEING ASSEMBLED DURING A MASS? ✝️ Students at CathWest Innovation College Mt Druitt transformed their Brick & Block workshop into a sacred space for a special Mass celebrating St Joseph the Worker, presided over by Bishop Vincent Long OFM Conv 🙏 In a powerful reflection of the College's unique blend of trade, innovation and Catholic identity, students helped prepare the liturgy by building the altar themselves! The celebration also featured contemporary hymns and a special performance of Jimmy Barnes' Working Class Man, highlighting the dignity of work and the vocational pathways that are central to the CathWest experience 🎶✨ What a joyful celebration honouring St Joseph and the important role of workers, apprentices and tradespeople in our communities!
