Parish News

A warm welcome to everyone. Tea and coffee are served after the 10.00am Mass on Sundays and the 09.30 Mass on Wednesdays; all are invited to join us. Father Alex offers a warm welcome to anyone who is visiting the parish this week.

Clergy Thought: The 14th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year C calls us to reflect on God’s care, the message of the Cross, and the call to discipleship. Through the readings, we see the joy of trusting in God, the importance of humility, and the hope found in sharing His love with others. They encourage us to rejoice in God’s blessings, rely on Jesus, and embrace the mission He has given us. Let us ask the Lord, to help us to trust in His care and follow His path with joy. May the Lord teach us to rely on the Cross and share His love with others. Lord fill us with peace as we face challenges and guide us to grow as your disciples. May we always walk with You. Amen. Fr Alex

ANIMA CHRISTI – Please check the first page of the Hymn Book for the prayer.
