Newsletter: 32nd Sunday in Ordinary Time B

Wed 13th November: Holy Hour - 7.00 – 8.00 pm
Cardinal Vincent Nichols calls for Catholics to pray to uphold the dignity of human life.

In light of the bill passing through parliament that seeks to legalise assisted suicide, the Cardinal has called for Catholics to pray to uphold the dignity of human life, especially on Wednesday 13th November. At St Margaret’s we will hold an additional Holy Hour from 7 –8 pm on Wednesday 13th immediately following the evening Mass. Please consider coming to pray, even if only for a little while.

Right to Life
You may have heard that MPs will vote before Christmas on an extreme Bill that, if successful, will legalise assisted suicide. This Bill is the most serious threat to vulnerable lives since the Abortion Act was introduced in 1967. It’s now crucial that all MPs and the Government urgently see that there is a large number of voters in each constituency who don’t want this dangerous and extreme change to our laws - changes that would put the vulnerable at risk and see the ending of many lives through assisted suicide.

You can make a difference right now by contacting your MP to ask them to stop assisted suicide from being rushed into law. It only takes 30 seconds using our easy-to-use tool: https://righttolife.org.uk/9ly2
