Newsletter
Dear Parishioners, we wish you a Happy Christmas and a blessed New Year. You will see that
the newsletter covers two weekends. There is a full programme of masses for Christmas and into the New Year and these are detailed on the mass schedule below. Thank you for all your generous support for the clergy
and thanks to all those who work so hard to make sure that everything runs smoothly for Christmas. We thank all those who have helped with the Crib, the flowers and decorations. Those who have helped with the altar serving,
music, reading, Eucharistic Ministers and Sacristans and Church Wardens. So many people in so many ways. We are grateful to you all. We have some gifts for all our helpers to collect from the Sacristy. Please call in. On St Stephen’s Day (Boxing Day), Thursday 26th December, we have a Servers Mass at 12 noon. We welcome all servers to this mass with their families. We will be presenting server’s medals on that day as well. There will be no evening Rosary for two weeks, starting again on Monday 6th January 2025. Our thanks to all those at the schools who worked so hard leading up to Christmas. We hope everyone enjoys a well earned break. ....Fr Tom

All Night Adoration
Over the last year the parish has established the practice of monthly all night adoration. It is a beautiful time of silent prayer in church and we are grateful for the good numbers who have supported this initiative. Moving forward, the adoration will be linked to the First Friday and First Saturdays devotion. The Blessed Sacrament will be exposed from 7.30pm on the First Friday of each month, and Christ the
King Church will be open for silent prayer until 7am on Saturday morning (access via the carpark side door). Confessions will be available between 7.30pm and 9pm. For more information please contact the parish office.
