A warm welcome to everyone. Tea and coffee are served after the 10.00am Mass on Sundays and the 09.30 Mass on Wednesdays; all are invited to join us. Father Alex offers a warm welcome to anyone who is visiting the parish this week.

Clergy Thoughts On the 30th Sunday of Ordinary Time, Year C, the Church reminds us that the Lord is a Just Judge who favours the humble and the just. The readings also remind us to be like God in how we treat others. Do we listen to those who are struggling? Do we stand up for the oppressed? If God hears their cries, we should too. He calls us to show kindness and love to everyone, especially the disadvantaged. For God listens to those who humbly seek Him and strengthens those who remain faithful through hardships. May we open our hearts to His grace and follow His ways with sincerity. Amen! Fr Alex
