NEWS AND INFORMATION

CAN YOU HELP? I am grateful to those who have volunteered to transport Fr John Paul from and to Romiley for our 10.30am Mass this week and next. If anyone could
do the same on Sundays 17 and 24 December, could you please let me know. Many thanks.

SUPPORT FOR WARRINGTON FAMILIES:
Once again St Josephs’ Family Centre are seeking to provide a Christmas Hamper and supermarket gift vouchers for families experiencing extreme financial difficulties this Christmas. Any donations of tins, packets and
long-life foods as well as selection boxes, chocolates and biscuits can be placed the in the red bin in the porch and will be taken to the St Joseph’s Centre. Next weekend is the last opportunity for you to make donations.

PLEASE PRAY for two parishioners who have died recently, Winfred Gerald and Hendrika Waites. May they rest in peace and may the Lord comfort their families and
friends.

SUPPORT YOUR PARISH: I am grateful to those who have put their names forward to join the Core Group. Ideally, I would like 10-12 people. The group will work with
me to plan a Parish Day in the New Year when the whole parish can come together and reflect on how to develop our life and mission. If you would like to join this group, please let me have your name, email and phone number.

A SERVICE OF PENANCE AND RECONCILIATION: to help us prepare for Christmas will be held on Tuesday, 19 December at 6.30pm. There will be readings and reflections
together with Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament and the opportunity for individual Confession.

NEW ST PAUL SUNDAY MISSALS are now in the porch for your use. Please feel free to take the old missals home for your own private prayer and reflection.
