Huge congratulations to all involved in the Christmas concert last Thursday night. It was a huge success.

Preparing the Church for Christmas

On Monday the 15^th of December at 11am we will put the tree and the crib up for Christmas. Many hands make light work, so if you can spare an hour to help it would be much appreciated. Fr. David.

Safe Space Listening

I have noticed in recent months, that there are more and more people seeking a safe space to talk about things in their life, that they are struggling with. I hope that if you know of anyone in the community who would like to share anything that they are finding difficult, would feel free to phone me on 01397702174. This as always would be a safe and confidential space. Fr. David.
