There are other points in the newsletter so may I kindly ask you to view the newsletter for other 2024 dates that may be of an interest to you. You can download the newsletter below.
I would like to express my sincere gratitude for all the help and support given this past year. As we continue to build the Parish together we ask God’s blessing on the Parish Community. May the New Years Eve bring fresh blessings upon the community that we may continue to draw strength from each other. Community cohesion is what makes our Parish a living body with a set purpose to serve God and each other in a spirit of mutual love and respect. May God’s blessing be upon us as a Parish family as we worship the Infant Child Jesus.
On behalf of Deacon Michael Dale & Myself we wish you God's richest blessings for Christmas and for the New Year 2023. I would like to thank everyone for their support and kindness throughout the year and for your generosity in this Christmas season.
