FIRST COMMUNION PREPARATION 'Listening'. In this theme we look at the readings from scripture and the chants (psalms) between these readings that form the main part of the Liturgy of the Word. We prepare for the Gospel by singing the Alleluia; we make a small sign of the cross on our forehead, our lips and our heart to symbolise our readiness to welcome God's Word into our life.Catechists Meeting : Wednesday 5 November 7.00pmParents Meeting : Thursday 13 November 7.30pmChildrens Gathering : Saturday 15 November 10.00am-l1.30amParish Celebration : Sunday 16 November 11.00am
