FR DAVID WRITES
On Thursday we attended the Farewell Mass for Bishop Sherrington. We send him off now to Liverpool with love, prayers and gratitude for his 14 years of ministry among us, and wish him well in his new diocese as he becomes archbishop. This coming Friday we have our first cohort of Confirmations. Please pray for those who will be confirmed, and for their families. The next group will be confirmed on Friday 6th June. As the Bishop has left for Liverpool, the confirmations will be celebrated by me. Have a great week and may God’s blessing be with us all.

FR TOM WRITES
On Friday evening our parish was filled with joy as we celebrated the Sacrament of Confirmation. Surrounded by family, friends, catechists and parishioners, the first half of this years candidates received the fullness of the Holy Spirit through the anointing of chrism and the laying on of hands. With this sacrament the Church confirms these young people as followers of Jesus Christ, and gives them the gifts to make his love known in the world.
We also rejoice as we prepare for the installation of Bishop John as the Archbishop of Liverpool, this coming Tuesday. I am fortunate enough to be able to travel up for the installation, and (opportunity permitting) I will pass all your best wishes and thanks on to him.
ASCENSION THURSDAY
Thursday is a holy day of obligation and there will be Masses at 8am, 10am & 7pm.

POPE LEO XIV
Please pray for Robert Francis Prevost who was elected Pope on Thursday evening. He has taken the name Leo the Fourteenth. Cardinal Prevost was born in Chicago in 1955. Before his election, he was an Augustinian Friar. He had previously worked as the Prior General of the Augustinian Order, as Bishop of Chiclayo in Peru, and as Prefect of the Congregation for Bishops in Rome. He holds a doctorate in Canon Law. He now brings his many pastoral and administrative skills to the mission of the Successor of Peter. The Mass for the beginning of the Pontificate will be held in St Peter’s Square on Sunday 18 May at 10 am BST. Let us keep him in our prayers!
