Penrose Park

Penrose Park is a beautiful place situated in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales (in Australia). It is home to the Pauline Fathers. I still remember way back in 1992, when the Pauline Fathers had a humble small private chapel and monastery.

One Sunday in Winter of 1993, we attended a mass in the chapel and afterwards, the priests invited us to have some coffee in the kitchen. It makes you realized life can be simple.

In mid-1994, thanks to the wonderful response of pilgrims who come to Penrose Park in large numbers, a beautiful church was built. The property grounds is also host to international chapels.

Its been over two years since we last visited and so today, we decided to take a trip to visit and attend Mass.

We love coming to Penrose Park because it is a sanctuary of peace for us.
