FEELING FAINT? Finally we are being promised some warmer weather” During the last such period a surprisingly large number of people fainted in Church. 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.
