Visitation of those who are housebound.
Thank you to Eucharistic Ministers and parishioners for your help in drawing up the list of elderly, housebound and infirmed parishioners who wish to receive the Sacraments
on or around the first Friday of each month.
As many of the names were submitted after the first Friday, the priest has yet to call, but hopes to do so over the course of the coming week.
Anyone who would like the priest to call each month is welcome to give their name and address to the parish secretary or the sacristan.

Laudato Si.
Laudato Si, ( Praise Be ) is an encyclical letter to every person in the world to make us aware for the need to tackle the climate change crisis for our planet 🌏
Laudato Deum( Praise God) is a further letter to us all reminding us about the urgency of the Laudato Si message and the need for both personal and cultural transformation amidst our ecological and climate crisies.
Both Letters can be found <here>
Pope Francis also made a beautiful film to accompany these letters called " The Letter "
