T

he Filipino C a t h o l i c Community in Warwick held its

sinulog in honour of the Santo Nino, the Holy Child Jesus, on Sunday, January 15 at St Mary’s Church. The celebration in Warwick was on the same day as the celebration in the Philippines which is known as the most prominent festi-

val in the country. There was a procession in the church grounds before the 8.30am Mass which was celebrated by Fr Saldie who is based at Villanova College in Coorparoo in Brisbane. Originally from Philippines, Fr Saldie has

been in Australia for 11 years. He was assisted at the Mass by St Mary’s priest Fr Bony Abraham. “The ceremony is to recognise the changing of the regal vestments of the Child Jesus,” Fr Saldie said. Continued on page 3...

HIGHWAY CRASH, NO INJURIES Staff reports

I

t was a lucky Friday 13th for the driver of a sedan travelling west on Percy Street, Warwick. The sedan was involved in an ‘altercation’ with a semi-trailer travelling north on Albion Street, and came off, not surprisingly, second best. The sedan sustained extensive damage to the front and driver’s side, but while Police, Ambulance and the Fire service attended, no-one was injured in the bingle. One lane of the highway was closed as police investigated and the damaged car was removed. Photo, Peter Schmidt.
