For a while, on Wednesday evening, it looked as if England was going to get into the World Cup Final. It was only then that I started to recall the last time they were in such a final, I was fifteen years old and unable to watch the match because I was busy as a “drug courier”. Now, just in case you think that I have had a totally misspent youth, I need to explain. I had a Saturday afternoon job, working for a pharmacist in an affluent suburb of Greater Manchester. This often meant that I had to deliver prescriptions and other pharmaceutical goods to people’s homes, on my bicycle. My first paid job was when I was twelve years old. It was a Summer holiday job working for a greengrocer who had an old removal lorry kitted out with fruit and veg. I would knock on the doors of houses and take their orders, then take the produce back to them. I can’t remember how much I was paid but I think it was just a few shillings (10p pieces) plus all the fruit I could eat. The world has changed a lot since those days in the 1960’s, but some things have stayed the same - love is better than hate, and good overcomes evil. It helps me to understand that God is ever new and always the same. I see him in a different light as I journey through life and I realise that England has more of a chance of winning a World Cup than I have of understanding God. However England can, at times, disappoint but God never fails to deliver.
Mgr Bernard

Ride for Vocations 4 – The Final Leg: Climb Every Mountain
COMPLETE! Over the past couple of weeks, Fr Matt Anscombe has been cycling up some of the classic climbs of the Tour de France in the Alps &
the Pyrenees including the mighty Mont Ventoux in Provence. He has been offering his ride for vocations to the priesthood, religious life & marriage. He has now completed that challenge. Fr Matt thanks you all for your support and asks you
to keep up the prayer. If you would like to support the training of our
seminarians by making a donation in recognition of Fr Matt’s achievement please visit:
www.mydonate.bt.com/events/rfv4 or write a cheque made payable to the ‘Clifton Diocese’ & drop it into
the Rectory in an envelope marked “Fr Matt Anscombe’ s Ride
for Vocations.” Thank you.
Clifton Catholic Children’s Society (CCS) Blue Boxes collection, is now
taking place. Please either leave them with Carolyn in The Parish or leave them in the Sacristy for the attention
of Pam Smeeton.
Gift Aid Envelopes The current boxes of envelopes no
longer contain envelopes for Second Collections as we cannot claim Gift
Aid on behalf of most of the Second Collection organisations; the exception being the Taunton
Catholic Charities. Some organisations supply their own envelopes which you can use & sign in order that they can
claim the Gift Aid e.g. Priest's Retirement Fund. Apologies for not
making you aware when the envelopes were initially issued.
BOOKSHOP: Please support your church & pay us a visit for your Gifts & Cards.
Opening times: Sundays, 8.30am -11.30am
There will be a second collection this weekend
for Taunton Catholic Charities

First Holy Communion, or anyone who has made their First Holy
Communion, would like to become an Altar Server, please contact
