School Certificates of Catholic Practice
If you are applying for a school for your child that requires a certificate of church attendance, then please allow a few minutes to see Fr. Adrian after a Sunday Mass and bring a copy of the
form along with you. The Diocesan document can be obtained through your Parish Priest or on the Diocesan website. The closing date for applications is 31st October 2025.
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 02085083492.
Parish Community Day & BBQ – 5th October, 2025
Just a reminder to everyone that our community day and BBQ are taking place on the
5th of October, 2025. Please come along after the Sunday masses and join us for a late summer BBQ and refreshments alongside our Community Day which will be in the church hall. We will have teas, coffee, soft drinks and maybe cake after the 9:00am Mass. The BBQ will be after the 11:00am Mass. Our volunteer activity leaders will be present in the hall ready to show the parish what they do and talk to everyone who comes along. We have many voluntary activities going on in our Parish, all of which our volunteers devote their time to helping. We are a community that is busy, inclusive and has a strong sense of belonging. Everyone is welcome on the day to celebrate our community and we look forward to seeing you!
Girlguiding-Volunteers Needed
Following the recent sad passing of Catherine Daly-RIP we are trying to ensure the future of her two units 7th Loughton Guides & 4th Loughton Brownies. We are looking for more over 18 years adult volunteers to assist & support with either of these groups. You do not need any special skills or interests or even to have been involved in Guiding before. Just bring enthusiasm to support our young girls. We offer full support and training. Please contact the Parish office
0208 5083492 and we will pass your details to Susan Wiseman -Assistant County Commisioner for Girlguiding Essex West. Thank you .
CAFOD: Response in Gaza
Your donations to Gaza since the start of the conflict have been a vital lifeline. Right now, CAFOD’s partner, Caritas Jerusalem, is delivering essential medical treatment to displaced people and providing medicines to treat chronic illnesses. We have helped 1,400 households with cash to buy supplies in the last month and we are currently feeding 2,000 people with new stocks of flour and rice. Despite the restrictions on aid coming into Gaza, CAFOD’s local partners are working tirelessly to help people. And with your ongoing support, they will do all in their power to keep doing so. You can find out more about how you can make a difference in Gaza at cafod.org.uk. Thank you for backing our work through holding collections for our Family Fast Day appeals and for continuing to pray for peace in the Middle East.
