Knights of St Columba: The knights are holding their first ever Poinsettia Sale as a fundraiser to ensure that they can carry on with assisting in charitable events including a donation to Children with cancer. Plants will be for sale at St George’s and St Wilfrid’s after Mass on Sunday 15th December. However, to avoid disappointment you can pre-order using the order form available at the back of the church. Your kind participation is greatly appreciated.
