MASS INTENTIONS - A BEAUTIFUL WAY TO PRAY Offering a Mass for a loved one, whether living or deceased, is a profound act of love and faith. Please contact the parish office to reserve a date. Let us continue to pray for one another through the powerful gift of the Eucharist. White Mass Intention Envelopes are available at both entrances. ALTAR SERVERS We need Altar servers, to help with all our Sunday Masses. Age is no barrier, both young people and adults equally welcome. Adults will need to engage with Safeguarding requirements. All would be servers must complete training before being admitted to the serving team. Please help if you can in this very important and vital ministry in our parish. Any former server who wishes to re-join the group will be equally welcomed. ALL SOULS DAY All Souls' Day is on Monday 3rd November. This is when we especially pray for all who still journey towards the eternal light of Heaven. Masses will be prayed at 7.30am, 10am and 7.30pm NOVEMBER LIST OF THE DEAD Praying for the dead is a long-standing Christian tradition deeply rooted in Scripture. Especially in November, we take time to remember each deceased person by name, bringing them before the Lord's mercy. It is important that we make the effort  every year to recall their names in prayer  and offer Masses for their souls. This year, Holy Souls envelopes will be available, and we encourage you to write the names of your deceased loved ones, friends, and parishioners for whom you wish us to pray in November. There will be a special basket in front of the Altar where these names will be placed. Any donations in the envelopes will go toward offering Holy Souls Masses  throughout the year, whether in our parish or in parishes with fewer Mass intentions. In this way, we not only remember their names before the Lord but also assist them on their journey to eternal life. PRAYER FOR THE FORGOTTEN DEAD O merciful God, take pity on those souls who have no particular friends and intercessors to recommend them to You, who either through the negligence of those who are alive, or through length of time, are forgotten by all. Spare them, O Lord, and remember your own when others forget to appeal to your mercy. Let not the souls You have created be parted from You, their Creator. May the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. A DAY WITH MARY A Day With Mary is taking place at Westminster Cathedral on Saturday 8 November 2025 (9.45am to 5.00pm).
