Ordinary Time begins after the Christmas and Epiphany season, pauses for Lent, and then resumes after Pentecost, continuing until Advent. During this time, the Church focuses on the life and teachings of Jesus, especially on Sundays. Week by week, we listen to the Gospel readings, which help us come to know Christ more deeply. Ordinary Time reminds us that our faith is lived not only in special seasons, but in everyday life. It is a time to grow as disciples, allowing Christ to be present in all we do. As we take part in Sunday Mass and hear the Word of God, may it strengthen our faith, draw us closer to God, and inspire us to live with love and charity each day. The Cycle of Prayer: During Ordinary Time (Summer, up to September) We are asked to pray for these intentions: A Deeper Understanding between Christians and Jews; Those who Suffer Persecution, Oppression and Denial of Human Rights; Europe; Human Life; Seafarers.
Over the next two weekends (23rd/24th and 30/31 May), Confessions will not take place before either the Saturday Vigil Mass or the Sunday morning Mass, as these will be First Holy Communion Masses. The Sacrament of Reconciliation will return to its usual schedule on 6th and 7th June . In case of emergency, please contact Fr Keith directly.
Thank you from the U.C.M. We are thrilled to tell you that the last Coffee Morning raised £321.55. This is all thanks to your wonderful support! This money, as always, will be given to Parish funds.
