THE FUTURE: Bishop Richard last week announced that from 10th January 2020, the Shrine of Our Lady of Consolation and St. Francis will be joined onto Billingshurst Parish. This will mean adaptations in both churches for the celebration of Mass. Starting on Sunday 10th January, Mass at St Gabriel’s, Billingshurst will be at 9.30am and the Mass at the Shrine in West Grinstead will be at 11am. These times will be evaluated after Easter to see if any modification is needed. The weekday timetable will be Masses at Billingshurst on Tuesday, Friday and Saturday at 9.30am and on Thursday at 7pm – and Mass at West Grinstead continuing on Wednesdays at 12 noon. We look forward to working with the good people of St Gabriel’s and through the intercession of Our Lady, St Francis and St Gabriel, celebrating together our Catholic faith.

 

The following are the service times (Mass and Confessions) for the next ten days at West Grinstead (11th to 21st December): 

Sunday 13th December: Holy Mass at 10.30am with Bishop Richard – Third ‘Gaudete’ Sunday of Advent.  Mass intention: A final breakthrough in Brexit negotiations  

Wednesday 16 Dec:  Holy Mass at Noon, preceded by Confessions at 11.30. Mass intention: For Vocations to the Priesthood in our Diocese.
 
Sunday 20 Dec:  Holy Mass at 10.30: Fourth Sunday of Advent. Mass intention: The future mission of the Shrine at West Grinstead
 
Monday 21 Dec: 7pm – Advent Confessions. A small number of priests will be present to hear Confessions, ahead of The Nativity of The Lord.

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.
