Dear friends and parishioners
Please remember that next Sunday is 15 August, and therefore the Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. This is the principal feast of Our Lady in the Church’s calendar and has its own readings and prayers.

Dear friends and parishioners,
Over the next three Sundays we welcome Bishop Tom Burns to help us while Fr Peter and Fr Matthew have some time off.
Born in Northern Ireland, he was educated and eventually joined the Marist Order. In 1986 he became a Chaplain to the Forces, eventually being ordained Bishop of the Forces in 2002.
Six years later he became Bishop of Menevia until his retirement in 2019.
We give him a warm welcome!

Dear friends and parishioners
Monday is the feast of Sts Joachim and Anne, the parents of Mary and therefore the grandparents of Jesus himself. So, it would be a good day to pray for our own grandparents – and grandchildren! Sadly, all four of my own grandparents were already deceased when I was born, but I will still pray for Annie and Tim, for Dan and Edie. What about you?
Fr Matthew
