Thank you to everyone who took part in our socially distanced relay to raise funds for the equipment required to continue our online Masses. Through their efforts we have raised £1,145 so far. This is a great start but you help us reach our target by donating through the parish Virgin Money link at tiny.cc/aguesz. Thank you for your generosity.

Mass times update

Fr Peter has to self-isolate for two weeks prior to an operation on the 8th August. This will involve the following changes to the Mass timetable:

• The Sunday 6.30 pm Mass will be cancelled for the next three weeks: 26th July, 2nd and 9th August.

• Fr Carlo from the Sons of Divine Providence will say Mass on Sunday at 8:30am and 10:30am only. For the next two Sundays Fr Peter will say a streamed Mass on Saturday afternoon for broadcast via YouTube at 10:30am on Sunday.

• There will be no public weekday Masses for the weeks beginning 27th July and 3rd August. Mass will be streamed as before but without a congregation.

• There will be no streamed Masses for the week beginning 10th August during Fr Peter's recovery.

Thank you for your patience over the next three weeks and Fr Peter apologies for the inconvenience caused.

Newsletter: 16th Sunday in Ordinary Time (A)

For the children, you can download and print the LOOK, colour-in sheet to find what is in the Gospel today. Please click the links below for both the Look sheet and this week’s copy of The Page.

Although we can now worship in community and receive the blessed sacrament, we must still take precautions to keep everyone safe. One of these is that there should be no singing because of the potential for increased risk of transmission from aerosol and droplets. All the parts of the Mass, which we have been used to singing will now be spoken and the spoken responses during worship should also not be in a raised voice.

This is the last newsletter until September. We wish you a safe and relaxing summer holiday.

Weekday Mass

Father Peter will be saying Mass this morning at 10.00am. His absence was not COVID-19 related but rather due to a recurring hernia problem. A day’s rest was all he needed.

Thank you.
