HARVEST THANKSGIVING AND LUNCH

We will give thanks for the harvest at Mass NEXT SUNDAY. The morning Mass that day will be followed by a harvest lunch. There is no charge for the lunch but donations are invited. Do please sign the list at the back of church if you would like to attend the lunch to help us assess numbers.

We will, as usual, make a collection of goods for the Foodbank at Harvest. At the moment, the Foodbank has an urgent need of these items: UHT Long Life Milk, Tea Bags, Instant Coffee, Tinned Vegetables, Dry Noodles, Fruit Juice or Squash, Biscuits, Jam.

OCTOBER—THE MONTH OF THE ROSARY

October is the month traditionally associated with praying the rosary. We will therefore offer an additional opportunity to pray that devotion with others on Saturdays in October at 11.00am. Do feel free to join us even if this is a way of praying that you have not experienced before.

CHRISTMAS DINNER

The parish Christmas dinner will take place on Friday 12 December. Deposits of £15 will be required very soon. Please sign the list at the back of church if you would like to attend.
