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.

Mothering Sunday at St Wilfrid’s

Mothering Sunday at St Wilfrid’s:  A very big THANK YOU to everyone who arranged and organised this Happy Mass.  The children really enjoyed their readings, prayers and musical hymns, such a variety of bells, tambourines and shakers for the final hymn, even Fr Kieran was seen shaking a maraca to the music.  Then the children handed out a beautiful yellow rose to all the ladies.  A special “Mothering Sunday” cake was washed down with a cuppa in the hall afterwards.
