BEHOLD THE LAMB OF GOD

we celebrate the Servant of God who came
to do the Father's will in perfect obedience.
Yet he was more than a servant, John the Baptist
calls him the Lamb, the chosen one of God.

My Dear Friends,

This Sunday is peace Sunday, which offers us all the opportunity to reflect on our Holy Father's message for the Day for World Peace. The full text may be read at www.paxchristi.org.uk.

Pax Christi, the international Catholic movement for peace, has a vision of a world where people can live in peace, without fear of violence in all its forms; a vision to hold before us at all times, and to pray about especially this weekend.

The parish "Walk With Me" programme, for children who are not in Catholic schools, meets every Tuesday evening at 5 pm.

The work is of the highest importance and class numbers continue to grow. It is hoped to subdivide the children into more 'age friendly' groups, but for this to happen we are looking for one further catechist.

COULD THIS BE YOU?

Please do think and pray about this and if you feel you could help out speak to me as soon as possible.

God Bless.

WHITE FLOWER APPEAL

Many thanks for your wonderful generosity. We have been able to send over £500 to SPUC for their important work. Please remember the Human Fertilisation Petition in the porch and sign it today!

DIOCESAN PILGRIMAGE TO LOURDES

2008 is the 150th Anniversary of Our Lady's appearing to St Bernadette, and is therefore a highly significant year for the shrine at Lourdes. As usual the diocese will be going on pilgrimage there at the end of July. If you are interested in joining our parish group be sure to take a booking form home with you today.

DON'T FORGET! THERE IS COFFEE IN THE PARISH HALL AFTER THE MORNING MASS ON SUNDAY.
