Category: Saint George’s latest news

Unfortunately we will not be holding an afternoon tea in July, but will keep you  posted about August.

For many years Sophie has worked tirelessly keeping our    website up-to-date.  As most of you are aware she has now moved away and although she pops back now and then it is not so easy for here with her new work commitments.

So we are looking for someone to take over this role.  Sophie is very happy to guide and support for as long as necessary.     Sophie assure me that it doesn’t require advanced technical skills!  Our hope going forward is that our website becomes less static and more fluid as our parish continues to flourish.  We would ask you to seriously consider if this is a way that you could contribute to our parish life and if so please contact Maria Hills on 07873759962.  Thank you.

This Sunday is the last Children’s Liturgy at St George’s before the school summer holidays.  Both St Wilfrid’s and St George’s Children’s Liturgy groups will then be taking a summer break. Lessons will resume on September 10th.  We wish all of our families a safe and happy summer.

So far has raised £1,131 with a small amount still to come. Well  done to all who helped raise this wonderful amount.

Last week’s parish charity breakfast at St George’s raised £180 for Eastbourne food bank, our thanks to all who supported. The July breakfast will be held on Sunday 30th and will be raising money to help pay for Stations of the Cross in St Richards Catholic College Chapel which has recently been built to help with spiritual growth of the pupils.
