YOUTH SUMMER TRIPS WITH FR HUGH AND A PASTORAL ASSISTANT
11-15 YR OLDS Mon 6th August - Thursday 9th August Parish trip to Faith Summer Break – This is a fruitful, well supervised time of fun (e.g.Games, Swimming sports & Chessington Theme Pk) and faith (e.g. Talks & Prayer) at Woldingham School, Surrey.
15 -30 Yr OLDS FAITH SUMMER SESSION – Mon 30th July – Friday 3rd August Quality talks in a holiday atmosphere at Woldingham School, Surrey.
A DATE FOR YOUR DIARY: We will have an Advent Parish mission here the week of 8th December onwards, led by the dynamic St Patrick’s Evangelizartion community from Ireland – including ex-gangster John Pridmore.
IF YOU FIND YOURSELF IN HOSPITAL you, or relatives/friends, need to tell hospital authorities that you would like to see a Roman Catholic priest. Over the coming months there may not be a duty priest between Thursdays-Saturdays so you’ll need details of which parish you are in so that they can contact your P.P. e.g. fill in and keep one of the dark blue cards in the porch.
FEELING FAINT? An increasing amount of people have been during Mass on a hot day. Please don’t feel you have to stand & kneel if you are feeling a little weak. Also it would be useful for the priests to know of any parishioners who have First Aid training or would like to receive it.
