We use the readings from the Misselette for the following Sunday. We share the readings and try and see what the Lord’s words are saying to each of us. All are welcome, especially readers of the word.

Eucharistic Adoration: We could still do with a few more people from 1.00 – 2.30 pm each day. Perhaps you could fill the gap ?

An Invitation: ‘Come and see’ Jesus said. Are you stressed, too busy, no time for yourself ? Come and join us on Tuesdays 7 – 8 pm for Reflective Prayer before the Blessed Sacrament and allow Jesus to refresh you and restore your peace. He is waiting for you to come. A special time to pray in the Parish for the Parish.

Please pray for the repose of the soul of Carmel Coffey, Spencer Villas. May she rest in peace.
