FACING THE FUTURE there will be a meeting on Tuesday, 24th November after the evening Mass. Please join us, if you can, for a meeting after the evening Mass, or please send in your feedback by that evening. The Mass that evening will be at the slightly earlier time of 6.30pm. The meeting will begin promptly after Mass and end by 8pm at the latest.

DURING NOVEMBER the children are still praying for the deceased during catechism. There are still post-its available on the board in the Narthex to add the names of your deceased relatives and friends, so that the catechism children can pray for them throughout November.
