Parish Office Over the SummerThe office will be closed most days until mid-August. Luckily, we have wonderful volunteers that will be in the office for a few hours while Susana is away (Wednesday and Friday 10.30-12.30) so queries will be answered as soon possible, but please bear with us for the next few weeks. For emergencies, please do contact Fr Ruslan directly. Message from Fr RuslanSeventeenth Sunday in Ordinary TimeThis weekend - St James, Apostle (Feast day) On July 25th, we celebrate the feast day of St. James the Apostle. St. James and his brother John were the sons of Zebedee. Jesus referred to these brothers as the “Sons of Thunder,” most likely due to their penchant for rash, emotional reactions and decisions. St. James teaches us the importance of humility and of promptly responding to God’s call, regardless of the securities we may leave behind in doing so. He was the first apostle to die a martyr’s death and eventually his body was brought to Santiago De Compostela. Novena 2026

YOUR EASTER AND CHRISTMAS OFFERINGS

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,
A gentle reminder that parish priests do not get paid a salary and are remunerated from Mass stipends and from the Easter and Christmas Offerings. Easter offerings go to Fr Ruslan as your personal gift. If you are planning to donate via bank transfer, please use the reference 'Easter Offering' or 'Christmas Offering'. Thank you in advance for your generosity. All money paid into the collection is used to cover the parish's expenses. Our challenge is to grow our parish's financial income to support our parish priest, maintain our premises and resource the many activities of the parish. This can be achieved by more people giving and/or people giving more generously. Please consider what you can do to help. We have special funds for projects and maintenance. Any questions on gift aid or if you need a form please email Kevin Kilburn on [email protected] Thank you very much for your generosity and support to the parish. I greatly appreciate all your help and financial contribution. May God bless you all!!! |
