Thank you

Thank you for supporting CAFOD’s Family Fast Day Lunch and Lenten Workshop.  A big thank you to all who supported our Soup Lunch and Lenten        workshop. We had a wonderful time tasting a variety of wholesome soups and everyone enjoyed taking part in a range of activities. Thank you to all who made this such a successful event. As a result of your generous donations, given in love, you have raised an amazing 363.50! This will be enough to buy 3 GPS trackers for families like James the fishermen. You are keeping the fishermen safe and helping them to feed their families for good. You can still give online at cafod.org.uk

Parish Tea and Coffee Mornings

St Wilfrid’s and St George’s serve tea/coffee after Mass every Sunday (St Wilfrid’s also serves it on Wednesdays) and are being well attended.  It is now a good place to meet new friends and old ones.  There is much conversation and laughter, a “Good Tonic” in these hard times.  We have some new members who have recently joined our parish and the tea/coffee after mass and have found this an excellent way to get to know fellow members of our parish.  All stating  “what a friendly warm church and  hall we have”.  So please you come and join us too.  I expect you have noticed how food prices are going up and up, so please could you put a little more in the tea/coffee pot.  Remember we provide biscuits always with your tea/coffee and on many occasions plenty of cake!!   Thank you.
