Making the decision to join the priesthood, serve God and the community, and undertake years of study and reflection requires commitment, resilience and very strong faith. This year Father Dominic Dinh, the parish priest of St John the Baptist in Bonnyrigg Heights, celebrated the twenty-fifth anniversary of his ordination. Father Dominic was born in Vietnam and, like so many in our area, came to Australia as a refugee in 1980. He was ordained at St Mary's Cathedral in 2000, the great jubilee year, and celebrates his silver jubilee during another jubilee year. Father Dominic has served in parishes across Cronulla, Moree, Cabramatta and Bankstown, and now proudly serves the thriving parish at Bonnyrigg Heights by providing pastoral care, spiritual guidance and myriad other supports. I joined the community last month to celebrate and recognise Father Dominic's many years of service. I congratulate Father Dominic on this special milestone and wish him all the best as he continues to serve our community.
