LIGHT THE ADVENT CANDLE Each weekend of Advent we will be singing one verse and refrain from a Hymn at the beginning of Mass as the Advent Candle is lit. Each week the verse and lyrics are dedicated to the candle being lit and will be advised in the Bulletin.
Fourth Sunday of Advent
Light the Advent candle, four:
think of joy forevermore;
Christ Child in a stable born,
gift of love that Christmas morn.
Christmas
Light the Christmas candles now:
sing of donkey, sheep, and cow;
birthday candles for the King,
let the alleluias ring.
Refrain
Candle, candle, burning bright,
shining in the cold winter night;
candle, candle, burning bright,
fill our hearts with Christmas light.

CONFIRMING OUR PARISH NAME In discussion with Bishop David recently, it has been decided to firm up the name of our combined Parish by combining the two names together in a new logo. Going forward we are ‘Our Lady of Peace and St Andrew’s’. The Bishop is happy with this slight amendment as it helps in some way for people to understand that we are truly one Parish and not two separate entities. You will see the new logo appearing across the Parish in future.

EVENTS IN 2025
EVANGELISATION & CULTURE CONFERENCE The Bible Bishop Robert Barron (Word on Fire) will soon be featuring in an Evangelisation & Culture Conference in London on the 21st & 22nd February 2024. Word on Fire have shared the following about the event: “To proclaim Christ in the culture, we must know Christ; and to know Christ, we must know Scripture”. As St. Jerome observed, ‘Ignorance of the Scriptures is ignorance of Christ.’ But in order to uncover the spiritual & theological meaning of the Bible, we need to take a genuinely Catholic approach: reading it within the context of the great & beautiful chorus of voices from across the centuries of the Church’s tradition. For more information & to book please see: events.wordonfire.org/the-bible-event
PILGRIMAGE TO ROME AND ASSISI As part of the Jubilee Year 2025, Bishop David Oakley will lead a pilgrimage to Rome and Assisi.
