OUR PARISH LIST OF THE SICK Please pray for the sick of our Parish and for those who have asked for our Prayers. There is a book kept in the Sacristy where you can enter the name of the person to be prayed for, please obtain the consent of the person before entering their name in the book. This book will be placed on the altar during each Mass at Our Lady of Peace Church.
MISSIO The half-yearly change-over of Red Boxes will take place over the next two weeks. If you would be so kind as to bring your current box into Mass and collect your new box from the back of the Church(es) it would be an enormous help. Please be sure your box is left with a known person.
CAR PARKING Please when using the car park at the rear of Our Lady of Peace Church please keep the middle lane clear, this provides access for an emergency vehicle if necessary. Also we ask that you take care not to block pavements or the corner of the road leading into St Michael’s Court. It is very difficult for residents of St Michael’s Court to access Lower Britwell Road when cars are parked on the corner obstructing the view onto the road. 🚗
CHURCH LINEN We are very grateful to all who help with the Church linen throughout the year, but more volunteers are urgently needed, if you would like to help with this Ministry please speak to Denise or Yvonne.

“SHARE THE JOURNEY WALK” A walk in solidarity with Refugees. CAFOD and other Catholic Agencies are encouraging Pope Francis’ new refugee campaign for 2018 to step up support for refugees and migrants forced to flee from their homes. The goal is to walk 24,900 miles, the distance around the world. The miles we walk will be added to the “Walk around the world” grand total, which will be presented to the United Nations meeting on Migration in September.
At the end of Refugee Week, on Sunday, 24th June, there will be a 4 mile circular Walk starting at 10.15am from St Gilbert’s Church. The pace will be leisurely. There are no stiles but there will be a narrow bridge crossing. There is an opportunity during the walk to cut the walk short reducing it to 2.5 miles for those who cannot complete the whole walk. There will be a short ‘Banana Break’, probably at Boveney Lock. This walk is also part of the the East Berkshire Ramblers’ Summer programme.
Full details of this Walk are on the East Berkshire Ramblers website. For further information please contact Cilla or Mike on 01628 662808 or 07718 762469.
