NEW  WEEKLY  ENVELOPE  COLLECTION

It is planned to introduce Weekly Offering Envelopes in our parish beginning on Sun June 1st. This is not an extra collection. It is still the regular Sunday Basket Collection.

The envelopes are now being distributed to homes in the parish. Each envelope will have a number. (No names will appear on the envelopes).  You are now

asked to put your weekly contribution in this envelope and then in the basket as usual.

 

GOSPEL  REFLECTION

In today’s Gospel, we hear Jesus say ‘I am the Way, the Truth and the Life’. By calling himself the Way, Jesus is stating that the way to the Father was through him. It is also interesting that the early Church community described themselves as followers of the Way. We must find the ‘Way’ in our lives.

The Tidy Town Committee would appreciate if care was taken in parking in the church grounds. Be aware of the damage that can be done to flowerbeds.

We also appeal to dog owners to keep to keep their dogs on leads.
