October is the month of the Holy Rosary. The Rosary is a beautiful and very powerful prayer, in which we meditate on the lives of Jesus and Mary, getting to know them and love them better. Why not consider praying even just one decade each day? Find out more on the Archdiocese website: rcadc.org/october-month-of-the-rosary .

Next Sunday, 18th October, the Holy Father invites all Catholics to support Missio – his charity for world mission – through a special collection. This day of prayer, solidarity and giving unites Catholics worldwide to share the Good News of God’s love which has the power to transform lives and heal our world. To donate, use the Missio envelopes, call 020 7821 9755 (office hours) or visit missio.org.uk/wmsdonate to give a gift, set up a Direct Debit and Gift Aid your donation if possible.

Please donate to our Family Fast Day parish collection. Put your faith into action and share the Lord’s love by supporting our global neighbours experiencing shortages of food and safe water. Your gift can support children like Tayla in Zimbabwe to stay in school by helping communities and schools provide nourishing meals, improve access to water and grow food in school gardens.
