Christmas Thanks
Could I thank all those parishioners who have worked so hard to prepare and clean the church for Christmas, and throughout the year. Your efforts are very much appreciated. Thank you also for kindness and generosity to myself, Deacon Thomas and Fr. Charles.
Fr. David.
Deacon Thomas
I am delighted to give you the great Christmas news that Deacon Thomas has completed his treatment, and all seems to have gone so well so far. Thomas, Sheena and the family, thankyou very much indeed for all your thoughts and prayers.
New Missals
I have ordered several Sunday Missals which have arrived they are priced at £17 each which is a discounted price as they were bought in bulk. They are now available at the back of the church. The daily missals are not out till next year, April 2025.
Jubilee Year 2025
Pope Francis inaugurated the Jubilee year on Christmas Eve with the opening of the Holy Door in Rome. Inviting all of us to be pilgrims of hope. There will be certain events going on throughout the diocese throughout the year. Please support them if you can.
Justice and Peace
Next Sunday there will be a letter read out and collection at all masses for the work of Justice and Peace. Thank you in advance for your generosity.
