What a fantastic time we all had on Saturday 30th June at our Summer Event!
As you will see from the photos, the weather was not as kind as it could have been - we dodged showers, some heavier than others. However, the sun did keep popping out to dry us a little!
Well done to everyone involved with the Event - you all worked SO hard!
.. and a huge thank you to all who came and supported the day - especially those who arrive during our 25 minute downpour! Now THAT is dedication!
We will wait to see whether our hilarious Guiness World Record attempt was successful - we had a fun time trying though! Standing in a field, in the rain, waving flags and singing God Save The Queen - could we have got any more British than that? I don't think so!
Welcome to our NEW website!!!
.. our last website had to close down for financial reasons so we now have a lovely, new version thanks to the talents of a certain fresh-faced new Deacon! (Thank you!)
As you can see, this is the Home page where we will post information about up & coming events or any news from the Parishes in Communion. Just scroll down to see what has been going on....
On the left hand side, just as with our old website on the home page, you can click quickly to see the Mass times for the coming week and to see the current Saturday and Sunday Rota's.
The tabs running along the top can take you to see all the Newsletters from around the Parishes, you can read minutes of various Committee Meetings, you can see a calendar of event taking place, look through the Gallery of photos, see information about our many Parish groups and even check the map to see where we are! (in case you forget!)
We hope you like our new site... don't forget to update your 'favourites' to find us easily each time!
