Newsletter 17.12.17.

Dear Friends,

Today’s Gospel focuses on John the Baptist. His greatness lies in the fact that he knows his place! He didn’t claim to be anyone other than the forerunner of Jesus. His role was to point beyond himself to the one as yet ‘unknown to you’. We too have a similar role: to point to our Saviour by our words and our actions.

Father James

  

Today there is a retiring collection for the Dependent Priest’s Fund. Please give generously.

Also today there is a Carol Service at the Sacred Heart in North Walsham at 3.00pm

The Children’s Parish Christmas Party
will be held in the hall at 4.00pm following the Carol Service at North Walsham. The list of children attending is now complete.

The first meeting for Confirmation Candidates and (for this meeting) parents is today, Sunday 17th December at 5pm in the church, at North Walsham, following the Carol Service.

Application forms for First Communion children are available in our church porches.

Monday 18th December the Senior Citizens Group (NW) have their meeting and will host Fr James’ Advent Day of Reflection. Please details on next page. .

We have been informed that regretfully there will be No Free Diaries (2018) that are usually supplied to us owing to numerous problems the company has been experiencing.

On Monday 18th December Father James will be leading an Advent Day of Reflection in the parish hall, to which the whole parish is invited. Mass will be celebrated at 12noon followed by a shared lunch.

CAFOD ‘World Gifts’ catalogues are available. Please read and see how your gift can make a difference to those in need.

Held at The White House, 21 Upgate, Poringland, Norwich organised by the Diocesan Youth Serv.
