SHRINE MINISTRY:
Thank you to everyone who shared in the launch of our Shrine project at our awakening day last week. John discussed the background to the project and the goal to place our celebrated icon to Our Lady of Perpetual Succour once again at the heart of our mission as a community. Pilgrimage and prayer are at the heart of an ambitious programme, but we agreed to make a simple start: so from Wednesday 10 May at 7.30pm come and spend 30 mins of your evening with us as we re-instate a beautiful weekly Novena service.
(If you were unable to attend the launch but would like to be involved please download an interest form click here and return to the parish office. We are looking for people with lots of different specialities.)
