Golden Wedding Anniversary
Congratulations to Barbara and Peter Brown,
who will celebrate their anniversary on 17th May.
Mass will be celebrated for them, on Friday the 30th of May.
We wish them every joy and
happiness.
Our Lady's Statue
was crowned last Sunday by Tabitha Dyer.
Before the crowning and singing
'Mary, Queen of the May'
the First Communion children were given their certificates,
and it was an opportunity to thank them, their parents and,
of course, Christel Saunders.
Parish Pastoral Council
It was decided at our last
meeting to invite a member (one) from our parish groups to serve on the
Pastoral Council.
At our next meeting, we hope to have a representative from the CWL, St Joseph's School, and the Justice and Peace Group.
Would the chairpersons of these groups, kindly choose
someone to sit on the Pastoral Council?
