Thank you for supporting CAFOD’s Family Fast Day!
October 10, 2025
Thank you so much for your generous contributions to CAFOD’s Family Fast Day Appeal. Your donations in our parish collection and online are helping families like Waré’s in Ethiopia. CAFOD’s local partners worked with Waré’s community to build an underground water tank that now provides safe water for 300 families. Your support this Harvest will help more communities have better access to safe water. You can read more about Ware’s story here: cafod.org.uk/harvest
This is Deacon Steve’s last weekend assisting on the altar at Mass.
The parish office will be closed for the next two weeks. Teresa, our parish secretary, is on Jury Service from Monday 24th November. If you have any urgent enquiries please contact Fr Keith. His contact details are in the newsletter.
The Parish is in need of people to serve at the weekend Masses as we now only have 4 regulars and Emma is the first new server for some years. As Caru shows you do not need to be a school child to be a server and we are aware that there are a number of ex-servers who are still regular attenders at Mass. With Deacon Steve taking a step back that will often leave Fr Keith on his own on Sunday mornings. If you are interested please speak to Fr Keith or Deacon Steve
The U.C.M will be holding a Christmas Themed Coffee Morning in the Hall on Tuesday November 18th between 10 am and 12 midday. Tea, coffee, raffle and lucky dip. Take a couple of hours out to relax with friends! As always, all proceeds will go to parish funds!
On Sunday 26th October we commemorated 40 years since the first Mass was celebrated in our church.
