Thank you to all who help with this important work.

Day for Life

Next Sunday there will be a second collection at all masses for Day for Life. Please be as generous as you can.

Transport to Mass

A number of people have mentioned to me that they cannot get to mass because they have no one to take them. If anyone is in this position, please get in touch with myself or Deacon Thomas, and we will arrange a lift. Fr. David.

Considering becoming a Catholic

If anyone is considering the possibility of becoming a Catholic and coming into full communion with the church do not hesitate to get in touch with myself or Deacon Thomas. Fr. David.

Welcome Surprise

After the recent break in to the Chapel House I lost personal money from my wallet. Parishioners heard about this and had a collection and returned this money back to me this was an extremely kind and thoughtful gesture, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kindness. Fr. David.
