Thank you to everyone who came to the first in the series of talks on Pope Paul VI's landmark document: Evangelii Nuntiandi (On evangelisation in the Modern World) led by Monsignor Paul. 
The talk was very informative and we are looking forward to the second part next week




Each Tuesday during Advent there will be an opportunity to listen to a series of talks on Pope Paul VI's landmark document: Evangelii Nuntiandi (On evangelisation in the Modern World). A document that Pope Francis has described as "the greatest pastoral document ever written". The talks will be given by Mgr. Paul and will begin at 7.30 pm in the hall on Tuesday 4th, 11th and 18th December.

                                       THANK YOU
A huge thank you to everyone who made last Saturday’s Parish Workers’ Social evening another resounding success.Once again the food this year by Anyas Catering was spectacular, but the most important thing was how much everyone enjoyed sharing each other’s company and having a chance to chat – often to people they had not known before.
Once again this year, Mgr. Paul received many emails from people who wanted to express how grateful they were to be a part of this amazing parish family.
Thanks again to everyone involved in awonderful evening which truly brought us all together. Have a look at some of the photographs taken on the night in the PHOTO ALBUM section at the bottom of this page - or on our facebook page !

We really need some new volunteers to help lead the children’s liturgy. Although you certainly don’t need to be a teacher to be a children’s liturgy leader, we appeal especially to all those young teachers or probationers in our parish.
Please give a little of your time for this really valuable ministry. Think how many great things Mgr. Paul could write on your next approval application if you were involved in the children’s liturgy!!
                    

A Sign of Contradiction:
This is the title of a new play about the Christmas story by Stephen Callaghan and presented by AGAP. The play will be performed at various venues (see AGAP for details) but it will be presented in our own hall on Saturday 15th December at 7.30 pm – tickets are available from the
sacristy price £5 and also through eventbrite.

We have started a little children’s singing group for a couple of events during Advent and Christmas. If your child is interested, please bring them along to the meeting room next to the sacristy for a practice after the 11.00 am Mass on Sunday.
