St Peter & St Paul’s SVP would like to thank all our parish for their supportive interest in our recent displays and lectern awareness appeal. Gregory is kindly allowing us to resume our Weekend After-Mass Collections from late October whenever there is no other special collection. You can help us so much with the increasing needs in our parish and local communities. The SVP wall collection box (just to the left of the main doors as you go out) is also there for donations at any time. Many thanks to you all in our parish. God bless
