News from St. Patrick’s!!! Changes which have been implemented since the arrival of Fr. Edgar:
Sanctuary and sacristy have had new carpet tiles fitted.
The sacristy, server’s area; working area, confessional and the heater cupboard have been painted. All looking very nice.
A new sound system has been installed.
The heating has been serviced.
More updates on the Induction:
Please remember 5th December cleaning of St Patrick’s Church. Cleaning will start from 6pm. Please come as and when you can and
leave when you wish. We’d be grateful if you would bring your own materials – and, of course, elbow grease!!!
If you haven’t put your name on the list please do so this weekend. Similarly the food list. If possible use a disposable plate and cover
with foil not film – easier and quicker to remove. When you arrive on 8th December please bring the food to the doors of the School Hall
where the ladies will be waiting to take it and place on the tables – then park! Thank you.
The Bazaar will be held next Saturday in St. Anne’s Church Hall from 2pm. We still need help with the stalls. Can you help? Perhaps you
have an idea for a stall. The more the merrier. This is our biggest fund raiser and we need all the help we can get. Thank you.
Prayers for the departed loved ones whose anniversaries occur at this time: [St. Patrick’s] Stephen Thomas Godwin, Margaret
Emery, Lilian Crewe, Frederick Smith, Clare Brown, Frances Broad, Anne Batkin, Anne Boyd, John Pinder, Joanna Curry, James
McConnell, Frederick Eley, Betty Allman, Frances Pinnington. [St. Anne’s] Patrick Healy, Eva Parsons, Desmond Connelly, Susan
