Assisted suicide Bill even worse than before –  postcards available:  Committee Stage of the assisted suicide Bill has ended. It is now weaker and less safe than it was before. 300+ amendments that sought to strengthen safeguards in the Bill and protect vulnerable groups were rejected by Bill supporters, including protection for people with disabilities and domestic abuse victims.  Please take action now – collect a red and white postcard, fill out your details and post it to your MP today!

Join us for a family-friendly Stations of the Cross at St Wilfrid’s on Good Friday at 10:00am. After the service, enjoy hot cross buns and refreshments in the hall. Donations of buns are welcome—please bring them after Mass on April 16th or on the day itself.
 

There will be a collection for Easter Flowers at St George’s and St Wilfrid’s this Sunday.

Thank you in advance for your generosity.

The next practice for our music group will be on Saturday 26th April from 10am to 11am in St  Wilfrid’s Church Hall.  We are  looking for more instrumentalists and singers, only  enthusiasm needed.  All ages welcome.
 

Booking is now open, for more information go to thepilgrims.org.uk.  The pilgrimage is going all around the diocese and is from 9th – 24th August 2025.
 

As I am sure many of you are aware, Catholic Priests do not receive a salary and rely on your generosity at Christmas and Easter as a thank you for all they do for us. It is also possible to claim gift aid on your donation if you are a UK  taxpayer and that extra 25% will go directly to Father Rory. If you aren’t part of a planned giving scheme then please use the “one off” gift aid envelopes located in the porch. You can also contribute via the digital collection plate at St Wilfrid’s or via the donations website link  (https://donate.mydona.com/st-wilfrids-church-hailsham )  using the “Easter Collections” tab. 
 

Easter Cards are on sale at the back of St George’s Church .
 

Sat 12th April 10am-12noon.

If you would like to help with weeding the car park,   clearing away leaves and generally tidying the borders, do come and join us for a couple of hours.

If possible bring your own tools or borrow some on the day!  Thank you!

Sat 12th April 10am-2pm.

Please do come and help to garden, clean, tidy etc. There will be enough jobs for us all to have something to volunteer for on the day.  Many hands make light work – don’t assume others will do it.
