Fr Rory’s Birthday celebrations and CAFOD Harvest Appeal:
We all want to wish Fr Rory a very happy birthday. Come and celebrate with us this Sunday afternoon from 4pm at St Wilfrid’s Hall for a birthday tea and musical entertainment.
Thank you to everyone who has sponsored Father Rory for his walk between our two churches. There is still time to sponsor him using the QR code below or the sponsor form at the back of church. Please share the link with your family and friends and help us to reach our target of £500 for the CAFOD Harvest Appeal. All sponsor money to be returned by Sunday, 13th October please. The walk leaves St Georges car park at 3pm. Please join us if you are able.
CAFOD Harvest Appeal: CAFOD Family Fast Day is on Friday 4th October: a day we can pray, give, and eat simply in solidarity with our global family. This year’s appeal is focusing on supporting people like Daniel, a 21-year-old, who lives in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Daniel’s family didn’t always have enough to eat, despite both of his parents working. There was no money to send him to school. Now Daniel is carving a better future for his family with carpentry skills he learned in a CAFOD-funded training centre. Use the envelope in church or give online at cafod.org.uk/envelope. The envelopes can be returned to church for the second collection on 6th October.
