My dear parishioners,
Still strange times and we seek God’s powerful presence in the midst of this pandemic. It will pass. As we are not allowed public Masses, I will continue to have Mass privately according to the Station Areas Rota in this newsletter and any special or anniversary intentions that you need.
I am drawing your intention to the Online Diocesan Mission (first ever). You have to register to get access and the back page of this newsletter has all the information. There are some great speakers each day and meditation and some prayer as you see. Hopefully the younger generation will help the elderly in setting it up.
May the Lord give you strength and endurance and good health.
Fr Tom
