SYNOD for a Synodal Church

Pope Francis has called a Universal Synod which is taking place in every Catholic diocese across the world.  The Synod is themed: “ http://thelittersitter.com/blog/pets-flea-product-causing-bees-to-disappear/ For a Synodal Church: Communion, Participation, and Mission”.  We want to hear from as many people as possible, those involved in the church and those who are not.

You can take part by completing an online submission using the QR code below or following this link:  www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/3D3FXJ2.  We have until 1st March 2022 to make our submissions.  Your contribution is invaluable and will make a considerable difference to the future of the Church in our diocese and across the world.

S.V.P. Help – the Need is as great as ever.

The Parish SVP Group is appealing to all parishioners for help. The St Vincent de Paul Society or SVP for short, is a group of volunteer parishioners who set out to help those in need. They need your assistance now more than ever as people suffer terrible hardship because of the Covid – 19 pandemic. There are families short of food, lonely people who need company, homeless individuals and families, people in financial hardship and those facing illness. Join us and work with them to help in whatever way you can – whether it’s packing up food parcels, phoning someone for a chat or giving someone a lift to an appointment. In addition, you might like to make a donation to enable the work to continue. The Bank Account Number is 46085858, the sort code is 60-60-04. For more information, please contact our President, Mr Andy McGuire on 07980 599 013. Thank you for your support.
