Tea/Coffee at St Wilfrid’s

Tea/Coffee at St Wilfrid’s:  Did you know we are serving tea/coffee and biscuits/cakes after the 10.30am Mass every Sunday.  Do pop in and meet some new friends and get to know your parishioners, we are a very friendly lot and we welcome you.  There is an Honesty Pot if you would kindly make a donation to cover the cost of these refreshments.  Thank you.

We look forward to meeting you, also don’t forget our ‘Sales Table’ is up and running – plenty of bargains to be had.  Please leave suitable gifts for the table in the porch, marked ‘Sales Table’ please.  We are still hoping for someone to come forward to take on the very rewarding job of keeping our Altar Servers Alb’s fit for the important job they do for us.  If you can’t contact David Hoad – who teachers them, then call or see Annette who helps us with the “Children’s Liturgy”.  Tel: 849732, thank you in anticipation.

St George’s is sparkling

St George’s is sparkling, fresh and clean thanks to hard work by Pailey and Shirley this week. Shirley removed candle wax from the altar carpet whilst Pailey used his Vax machine to shampoo the aisle and altar carpet. This will be done now quarterly so if you would like to help let Pailey know. Thank you to both of them.

Our Thanks

Our thanks to Ros and Stella who before the pandemic started had sold books and plants raising £200. This paid for the make over in the Remembrance Garden at St George’s with the residue to be used to maintain a seasonal display and keep it looking as beautiful as it currently does.

Prisoners’ Sunday – 10th October 2021

Pact, the national Catholic charity supporting prisoners, people with convictions, defendants and their families, continues to be a shining example of strength and conviction.  Pact continues to bring hope in what continues to be a very difficult environment:  hope to families and children who have suffered prolonged separation; hope to those who have been confined to their cells for 23 hours a day for over a year.

Rooted in Catholic Social Teaching the staff and volunteers at Pact are unrelenting in their dedication to accompanying people on their journey through the criminal justice system to a fresh start and new opportunities.

Pact, its staff and beneficiaries will be grateful for any support you may be able to offer at any point in the year.  Please do contact the Pact team for more information, either by telephone on 020 3031 6867, or by email [email protected]
