Dear Parishioners, this week we celebrate the Feast of Corpus Christi. It is a time for us to rejoice in the gift of the Eucharist and the abiding presence of Jesus in our midst. We receive Our Lord in Holy Communion, but we can also experience this presence by private visits to the church, praying before the Blessed Sacrament in the Tabernacle. The church is open from morning ‘til evening and it is good to call in, even for a few moments rather than walking past the church door. This Thursday we will be blessing a new Prayer Garden in the grounds of St Augustine’s School. This will be a place of prayer for the children and a Garden of Remembrance. Christ the King are having a new prayer area with a mural and Wall of Remembrance at the Westhill Road site. We ask your prayers for two of our priests who worked here at Christ the King. Fr Paul Johnson had a fall and has damaged his spine. He is in Heartlands Hospital and is immobile at the moment. Fr Chris Yule was involved in a car accident and has broken his ankle and his wrist and is in hospital recovering. Please remember them and their families in your prayers… Fr Tom
