NOTE FOR OUR CONTEMPORARY MUSIC GROUP

We will next be singing and playing at the 11am Mass on Sunday, 3rd November and holding a  practice beforehand in the Church Choir loft 7 to 8pm on Monday, 28th October.

Please make every effort to come to the practice as well as the Mass as we have a new psalm to rehearse along with the hymns we’ve chosen to sing at the Mass. We look forward to seeing you all there. We invite any new singers or musicians in the Parish to join us – simply come along! Thank you.

JOURNEY IN FAITH

Do you feel God’s gentle call to become Catholic?  Or have you been away from Church life and want to return, finding out more about your faith?  Would you like to deepen your knowledge of the Catholic Faith?

If any of these questions apply to your situation then the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults is for you!  Running from October until Easter, the RCIA programme helps to form intentional disciples for Christ and prepare candidates for the sacraments of initiation into the Church, as well as helping anyone who would like a refresher of Catholic teaching.

If you are interested, or know someone who might be, please contact the parish office.

CERTIFICATES OF PRACTICE FOR SCHOOLS

Parents who are applying to a Catholic school for their children should please bring a completed certificate of Catholic practice to Father Adrian after the Sunday Mass they usually attend. Information and certificates can be found here:
