27th Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year C) Ps4 6th Oct 2019 The Catholic Church is preparing to observe and celebrate an Extraordinary Missionary Month in October, which was announced by Pope Francis to mark the 100th anniversary of Pope Benedict XV's Apostolic Letter Maximum Illud. The theme chosen is “Baptised and Sent: The Church of Christ on Mission in the World.” The initiative aims to awaken the awareness of the meaning of mission and reinvigorate the sense of responsibility for proclaiming the Gospel with new enthusiasm. October 2019: 'Baptised and sent' To commemorate this anniversary, Pope Francis has declared October 2019 to be an Extraordinary Month of Mission (EMM). This special month of prayer and action calls us all to renew our missionary commitment. We are called to share the Good News of Jesus Christ with all peoples. Next Sunday October 13, we will have a second collection to support Salvatorian Missions.
Parish Office hours: Tuesday & Friday: 9am-2pm
Last week’s offertory, £790.02 received with many thanks!
The second collection for the Parish Hall renovations, £627.84 thanking you for your generosity!

Renovation Work on The Parish Centre: The bulk of the works are
now complete & I’m sure you will agree when I say that the hall looks
wonderful! The Grand Opening party that was held on Friday night
was a big success & it was great to show all the people that have
worked so hard on the renovation our gratitude.
We have to say an enormous thank you to Mark Burrell, Sean Moore
& Darren Borman who have worked so hard to get teams together &
have made the renovation possible.
The hall is such a wonderful addition to our community & it will serve
us for many years to come.
Thank you again to everyone for your generosity in helping in our
fundraising efforts. We still have a ‘building fund box’ at the back of
the church should you wish to donate - all monies collected mean we
are a step closer to raising the full amount that has been spent on the
Parish Centre - thank you very much to those who have donated to
the box so far! We will also continue to have a second collection on
the last Sunday of the month to help reach our target!
Please be advised that all activities within the Parish Centre will now
resume.
