Community News
Our youth group, Rising Youth Ministry (RYM), returns this Sunday 17th October, 2-4pm. The RYM team is looking forward to welcoming the children back. We have an exciting program for the children and we can’t wait to share it with them. Get ready for another amazing day. After RYM the children will gather in the Church for a Youth Mass at 5pm. The energy from the children will uplift everyone at Mass. It is going to be great.
We had our second gathering of Rising High last Sunday. It was another fun-filled God centred night!! Thank you to one of our youth leaders, Dominic for sharing his story on how God helped him through his darkest years. Strengthening & trusting his faith in God - to a God who sees all things. Victory is claimed! In Jesus we trust!!! (See photos below)
Rising High is an extended group of Rising Youth Ministry (RYM) for teenagers aged from 13-17 yrs old. Rising High meets every Sunday, except on RYM days, from 6-7.30pm, in the Parish Blue Hall. We begin by attending the Spiritus Mass at 5pm, then followed by formation, fellowship, and just having a great time.
Despite the bad weather last Tuesday, we had a good turnout at our Seniors Group. Everyone had an enjoyable day. A great gathering. Our Seniors Group is on every Tuesday from 9.30-10.30am (after the 9am Mass). Everyone is welcome. Come and join us for a cuppa. Here’s a testimony from George: "We haven't been to Mass or any Parish event since the start of COVID. It is so good to be here. We really enjoyed it."

ALL SAINTS AND ALL SOULS
The start of November is only two weeks away, and the Church celebrates two great feasts:
This weekend we will have a BOOK OF REMEMBRANCE in the church and you are invited to take a moment to record the names of your loved ones who have gone before you marked by the sign of faith. November is traditionally the month that we remember and pray for the dead and our BOOK OF REMEMBRANCE will be placed in the sanctuary and will be the focus of our prayers during this month.

There is no longer any need to pre-book for Mass. Since the 9am Sunday Mass is always full, we will count the number of people attending this mass. Once we reach the church capacity of 190 people, we will have to ask latecomers to leave. Please come early to secure your seat at Mass.
