Sung Parish Mass @ 11.00am
The Week of Prayer for Christian unity continues until the 25th January.
Thank you to those who attended the Parochial Church Council (PCC) Meeting here after Mass last Sunday. The minutes are available to all from last Sunday’s meeting. Also I was pleased to see several others stay on at the PCC. We have always kept these meetings ‘open to all’. I realise that some matters may need a vote or be sensitive but as long as people realise this we will let you know beforehand. Some churches can fall prey to the ‘membership’ mentality. All are invited and please share this with others here. Everything discussed is recorded in our minutes. Thank you to the Secretary for keeping the PCC and everyone updated.
The church is open every day at 9.00am

Our Lord Jesus Christ begins the Ministry
So Christmas and the New Year holiday has drawn to its close and we begin the time of 2023. We have grown rather used to unexpected events and happenings being sprung into life around haven’t we? Especially those unexpected events these last two to three years have made the world and even local communities less secure and more unpredictable. As we journey with the Magi to see the Christ-Child let us continue to seek. ‘Faith seeking understanding’ St Anselm of Canterbury (1033-1109) A treasure to share.
Today Christ’s Baptism is the Father’s blessing on his life, and a call to us to become at one with God’s Spirit. As we follow the life of Jesus Christ in His Ministry, we pray for peace and reconciliation. As we approach the altar today, those gifts are given to us once again.
The Season of Christmas ends
