Please note that our Annual Graveyard Mass will take place as usual – on Sunday 1 November at 3pm, but, sadly, without the customary refreshments afterwards. However, the Blessing of Graves will follow the Mass as usual
 We would like to express great thanks to John, Chris, and James Dobbe for such splendid work in the grounds recently – including a brand new shrub/flower bed near the 5-bar gate to the paddock, and the removal of a considerable quantity of rubbish – including hardcore – from the Pilgrim’s Way, in a sizeable skip.
Just a reminder that the clocks go back THIS SATURDAY/SUNDAY (24/25 Oct)

An Act of Spiritual Communion

My Jesus,

I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.

I love You above all things,

and I desire to receive You into my soul.

Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally,

come at least spiritually into my heart.

I embrace You as being already there

and unite myself wholly to You.

Never permit me to be separated from You.

Amen.
