Newsletter

Dear Parishioners, this week we begin our Commemoration of the Holy Souls and we will be reading out the names from the Book of Remembrance at each of the masses through November. Please let us have your Holy Souls envelopes with the names of the deceased so these can be included in the Remembrance Book. The book will be on the Sanctuary for the month. The donations will be given to the St Vincent de Paul Society, supporting local people in need. Unfortunately, the Holy Souls box was stolen from the church last Sunday afternoon, so it’s not sensible to leave out another one, so we would ask that you place the November envelopes in with your collection as you come up to communion or post it through the Presbytery letter box. We have the culprit on CCTV so this may not be the end of the story!! ….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.
