With the First Communions behind us, we are reviewing our catechesis programme for all schools. My personal thanks to catechists and teachers for their support.

Our Journey in Faith concluded with a social gathering to say thank you to all who participated.

Thanks for supporting our fledgling Youth Group at their cakes sale after all Masses last weekend.

Safeguarding: Gillian Mc Arthur has a major task in taking responsibility for the entire parish, and will be receiving assistance in this important role. Areas needing immediate attention are names of all altar servers, ages, parents consent, full names of all participants in the training day for Eucharistic Ministers on the 25th July. The sooner we receive responses to Gillian’s requests, the sooner we can move forward on all areas of Safeguarding. Please forward that information to Gillian, or Marjorie, as soon as possible. Thanks again.

The Camino was as wonderful as ever, despite minor setbacks and despite the high temperatures. A surprising number of young pilgrims, especially young single pilgrims.
