My dear friends,

Once again the days have evaporated and publishing date is only three days away so this will be a channel to highlight what looks to be a busy month ahead.

Returning from a break and the Clergy Conference I shall be pleased to be back in the centre of school life. One of the reasons for saying this is to draw your attention to the Mass Kalendar where there are a few occasions that it will not be possible to provide a Mass here, (there is a Mass on Monday at S Bartholomew's at 09.30 and at S Paul’s on Friday at 11.30).

Two days after returning from Canterbury we have our Autumn Jumble Sale, the event that supports the Winter Wonderland, our major fund raiser. As I have said before both of these are events that everyone can support if only by coming for a coffee and I would urge you all to do so please.

On Tuesday 16th we are hosting the Society of the Holy Cross local Chapter transferred celebration of Holy Cross Day. There will be a Solemn Mass at Midday to which you are all welcome.

At the end of the month (28th) Fr. Robert is to be installed as a Canon of the Cathedral at 3pm. In that he is preaching here in the morning he will ensure that we can easily catch the 13.03 to be in Chichester in good time!

Finaly I am sorry to say there is no Mass on the last day of the month as it is the Society of the Holy Cross Synod in Croydon. Please do remember those of us who work in this Order in your prayers that day.

With my love and prayers,

Fr. Trevor
