26th Sunday of the year - 25th Sept 2011
FORTHCOMING EVENTS
• Journey in Faith: Our programme for those who wish to become Catholics, adults who have not yet been confirmed, or any others just wishing to deeper their understanding of the faith has started, and will continue on Saturdays at 10:30 am in the Annexe. Please invite any you know who may be interested to come along.
• Cathoilic Childrens Society: Annual collection after all masses this weekend.
• Cricklewood Homeless: Monthly collection of non perishable food after all masses this weekend.
Re-establishing Friday Penance
From Friday 16th September we have been required to abstain from meat. Friday penance, to remind us of the suffering and death of Our Lord, Jesus Christ on Good Friday, has always been a requirement, but the reality was that when it was left to us to decide what that penance should be, many never did any penance. Furthermore this practice can be a great opportunity for us to witness to our faith, eg. A work colleague may notice and ask why we don’t eat meat – and that could be an opening to talk about our faith.
