Scripture Group: The Scripture Group (Lectio Divina) meet every Wednesday night from 8 pm to 9 pm in the Presentation College House, opposite St Joseph’s Church. 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.

Coffee Shop: Tea and coffee is served in the Parish Centre after 10.00 Mass, Monday - Friday. Come and meet your friends. You would be most welcome.

Please pray for the repose of the soul of Karoline Laue, Dundela Park, and Mary Ryan, Eden Terrace. May they rest in peace.
