Notices

On Thursday 02 November, as we remember our beloved dead,  we will have two Masses at Our Lady of the Rosary Church, one at 10:00 am and one at 6:00 pm.

2023-Oct-14:  We urgently need some more volunteers to distribute envelopes for Holy Souls and for Christmas & Easter Dues.  See the Newsletter of this weekend for details of areas in the parish where we are currently short-handed.  If you are in a position to help, please leave your name, with contact details and area(s) you can cover, in the Sacristy.

The ongoing work of the parish in our community is not only enhanced by but greatly dependent on the voluntary service of parishioners in the various ministries and supportive roles.  Could you give some time to one or more parish groups?  If so, your help would be much appreciated.  Please leave a note in the Sacristy with your name, contact details and group(s) of interest.

Many parishioners have served for a time as Eucharistic Ministers and then retired.  Are you one of them?  Would you like to return for a further term?  You would be most welcome.  Please leave your name and contact details in the Sacristy.

2023-Aug-31:  We resume production of the Parish Newsletter this weekend.  A single page, separate from the Mass Leaflet, it is available at all Masses.  Take a copy home.  Feel free to bring one to a neighbour who may be unable to come to Church.

 If you have ideas for material to be included or wish to advertise parish events, leave a note in the Sacristy.  Mark it for Newsletter Editors.  Please include your name and contact details.

The monthly collection for the local conference of St. Vincent de Paul will take place next weekend, 5th & 6th August, outside all Masses.

We expect to resume production of the Parish Newsletter in September.  In the meantime, news items, which come to our attention, will be published online under Notices / Events.

Fr. Tom Ryan, whose Diamond Jubilee occurs this year, has given wonderful service to the parish over many years.  Parishioners were delighted to pay tribute to him and to celebrate the occasion with tea / coffee and cake on Wednesday 10^th May, 2023.
