FR JOSEPH thanks the Parishioners for adjusting to 9.30am Mass.
THIS SUNDAY IS REMEMBRANCE SUNDAY and we pray for the repose of the souls of those whose lives, in world wars and conflicts past and present, have been given and taken away. We pray in particular for the servicemen and women who have died in the service of their fellow citizens and for their bereaved families.

Your dear ones will be remembered at all the Masses for the Holy Souls offered during November.
