Fr Nicholas Hird - Parish Priest
This Sunday is a day of prayer to deepen our own sense of vocation, and to pray to the Lord to call men and women into a life of ministry and service within religious life.
"The Sunday Eucharist is a gift...
our deepest joy. We need to make it the foundation stone of our lives."
"... receive the Body and Blood of Christ with faith and ... be satisfied"
Pope Francis.
Loving God, We pray for the people of Ukraine, for all those suffering or afraid, be close to them and protect them. We pray for world leaders, for compassion, strength and wisdom to guide their choices. We pray for the world that in this moment of crisis, we may reach out in solidarity to our brothers and sisters in need. Amen.

People of the Parish
"For us Christ is everything. If you have a wound to heal, he is the doctor; if you are parched by fever; he is the spring; if you are oppressed by injustice, he is justice; if you are in need of help, he is
strength; if you fear death, he is life; if you desire heaven, he is the way; if you are in darkness, he is the light.”
St Ambrose of Milan
Tuesday 23rd April
St George, Martyr and Patron of England
Saint George was martyred at Lydda (Israel) around 303 in the persecution of the Emperor Diocletian. His cult, which predates the legend of him slaying the dragon, spread quickly through East and West. During the crusades, George was seen to
personify the ideals of Christian chivalry, and he was adopted as patron saint of several city-states and countries. King Richard I of England placed his crusading army under his protection, and in 1222 his feast was proclaimed a national holiday.
Thursday 25th April
St Mark, Evangelist
