Eucharist Ministers and Readers

We thank both groups for the service they give at our parish masses.  June 18th at 7pm is the date for the recommitment ceremony.  We would like new members to join both groups. Three Eucharistic ministers have expressed their wish to retire.  We thank them for their service.  Please consider putting your name forward either as reader or communion helper.

 

Confirmation/First Holy Communion 2011

We congratulate our children who were Ò sealed with the gift of the Holy Spirit Ò on confirmation day.  We also congratulate all our boys and girls who received Jesus in Holy Communion.  We salute their parents and family members who helped our children on their faith journey.  May our children continue to grow in their trust and love of Jesus.

 

Preparation

Many thanks to all who helped to prepare both ceremonies.  They were truly splendid occasions and bore all the fruits of careful planning and very good organising.
