CONGO CRISIS APPEAL: CAFOD have launched a £1 million appeal to help relieve the suffering of people who have been forced to flee their homes. Thousands of people are living in makeshift camps, while others have taken to the roads on foot, with only the possessions they can carry, in the hope of reaching safety. The immediate needs are for water, food, shelter, medical supplies and basic items such as blankets, clothes and cooking equipment. A retiring collection will be taken at all Masses next weekend to help CAFOD with their work in this area.
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. Parents Meeting : Thursday 13 November 7.30pm Childrens Gathering : Saturday 15 November 10.00am-11.30am Parish Celebration : Sunday 16 November 11.00am FR STEPHEN MAUGHAN will be taking up residence here at the Rectory in the New Year. He will be involved in All Saints School, helping with the York Hospital chaplaincy, organising the diocesan choir and also the celebration of the Tridentine Mass at English Martyrs. Stephen is a very talented musician and singer - you may have met him at some of our diocesan events. I know you will give him a warm welcome. MASS OF REMEMBRANCE - Friday 21 November at 12.10pm.
