Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament takes place every Thursday in the Church after 9.30am Mass to 6pm.  This is a great form of quiet reflective prayer.  New adorers are always welcome in maintaining the flow of prayer.  This is especially the case between the times of 1pm and 4pm.  If you could commit to an hour perhaps you would give consideration to these times especially.

A meeting will be held in the Parochial House on Wednesday 19th June to organise the Corpus Christi Procession (weather permitting!!) for Sunday 23rd June after 11am Mass.

Corpus Christi Procession ~ Sunday 23rd June
At the end of the 11 a.m. Mass, on Sunday 23rd June, we will process from the Church to the Grotto for Benediction (weather permitting). The people who are usually involved in the carrying of the canopy are asked to make themselves available, as well as those who usually steward the procession, and a number of Altar Servers.
The First Holy Communion boys and girls are invited to walk in the Procession in their First Holy Communion dress/suit.
