BJPII Catholic Community Raise Fund As the canonization of Blessed John Paul II draws nearer, the BJPII Catholic Community in Albany, Auckland conducted a Bingo Social on August 18, 2013 for the purpose of raising funds for the current and future needs of the growing church. The activity followed the Holy Mass officiated by Fr Rory Morrisey; and shared lunch. Nearly two hundred people turned up for the fun-filled activity that not only allowed lucky individuals to win cash prizes, but also to be entertained by invited talents. Since Fr Sam Pulanco was reassigned, Fr Rory took over as chaplain in guiding the parishioners in their journey towards the establishment of a parish in one of the fastest growing suburbs in Auckland.
