As Boolaroo marks 100 years as a parish community, we asked some of its longest-standing members a simple question: 

What advice would you give to the younger generation? 

Their answers spoke of kindness, prayer, listening and faith. 

In a church that has seen a century of life unfold, their advice does not need embellishment. 

It speaks for itself.
