Newsletter 5.10.25

“Faith is not the belief that God will do what you want.  It is the belief that God will do what is right.”

On this 27th Sunday in Ordinary Time Year C, the Holy Mother Church invites us to reflect on one of the most important Christian and theological virtues – Faith. It is the foundation of our Christian life.  Faith gives us a new vision and a new perspective on life.  The readings speak of faith that waits with hope, worship that listens and service that does what is needed. Each passage points to a life that relies on God, not on our own strength.

Fr. Peter

This weekend the second collection is for CAFOD, incorporating our donations of last Friday, Harvest Fast Day.    You can also donate online at cafod.org.uk/envelope or call 0303 303 3030.

Mass Count (No. 3) should be taken this weekend.

World Mission Day is on Sunday 19th October.

HARVEST THANKSGIVING will be celebrated at all our Masses in our three churches on the weekend of 19th October. Parishioners are invited to bring their harvest items, if possible, before Mass starts, up to the altar where they will be displayed. NO PLASTIC BAGS please, so that we can adorn the church with God’s bounty – and not that of local supermarkets!! Perishable items will be sold after Mass for CAFOD; store cupboard items will go to the Food Bank.

Opportunity for Catholics in Healthcare and Life Sciences to Support Ethics Project.  The Diocese invites doctors, nurses, pharmacists, researchers & other professionals to contribute to an ongoing project applying the Church’s recent teaching on human dignity to the increasing challenges of living the Catholic faith in these professions.
