From the Parish Social Committee Lots of parish events in the pipeline! Next up: Wine Call My Bluff Friday 25th September (18+)

Let us pray that in large cities often marked by anonymity and loneliness we find new ways to proclaim the Gospel, discovering creative paths to build community

If you would like to donate or help with ongoing garden maintenance, please speak to Anthony or Christine.  Even popping in to water occasionally would be helpful

The Assumption of Our Lady into Heaven: Next Weekend 15th and 16th August  There will be prayer in the Marian Garden just before Mass, followed by a procession into Mass. Arrive in good time, grab a hymn book, and head outside. In the event of inclement weather – eg snow – we shall start in the hall. Please bring your rosary beads and your chosen decade. (Rosary beads and Decade Rings now on sale on our Piety Stall). This is an important devotion for our children and teens.
