Epiphany of the Lord
MAY GOD GRANT YOU A BLESSED NEW YEAR. We thank God for the past year, particularly for the spiritual fruit he has given members of our parish in our journey together to Him. Fr Hugh, Fr Kieran, Fr Nimal and Sr Lily would like to thank you all very much for your great support over the last year through prayer, friendship and materially, including the kind cards and gifts over this festive period and the very generous Christmas Day collection. Thank you to all who have attended our worship on the day of the Lord, as well as Cleaners, Sacristans, Servers, Musicians, Collectors, flower arrangers, Readers, Extraordinary Ministers of Communion and others, for their support of all our worship in the Church. We also remember with gratitiude at this time all our Group Leaders and Catechists who have also laboured fruitfully to be means of the grace of God to our community. Our Christmas worship was a worthy crowning of all of this.

NEXT WEEKEND: There will be the annual White Flower appeal for the very important political work of the Society for the Protection of the Unborn Child.
