THANK YOU
Fr David, Fr Andrew & Fr Johnson would like to thank you for your kindness over the Easter.  For your prayers, good wishes, cards and gifts.

VOLUNTEERS
A very big thank you to all those who helped prepare the Church for Easter, the cleaners, Choirs, servers, readers, Eucharistic ministers, flower arrangers, collectors and anyone else who helped in anyway.

CONTACTLESS CARD READER
Our Card Reader is currently located in the Paper shop if you need to use it—thank you.

CHRIS NAGLE WRITES
I would like to thank all the friends and parishioners who sponsored me in my 200km Big Lent Walk. In the end, and despite a dose of flu,  I managed to complete the challenge, but I am blown away by your generosity, as you have contributed £480.00 to the amazing work that CAFOD do. Every pound raised through the Big Lent Walk will help fight poverty globally in countries like Afghanistan, Colombia, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and South Sudan. Thank you so much!

OUR LADY OF LOURDES SCHOOL
Help our school get £1500.  Our school has applied for a grant from Tesco to upgrade the infant playground.  We will be up against other schools and whoever gets the most votes will win the £1500.  To vote you need to shop at Tesco and ask for the blue token when you check out.  We will be in local stores—Colney hatch Lane, Hampden Square, Whetstone and others from April to June—thank you.

New envelopes are available at the back of church for collection today. Please note that envelopes are in number order—please take yours today.
