PAPAL VISIT 2010:

HYDE PARK PRAYER VIGIL – 18th SEPT

BIRMINGHAM MASS – 19th SEPT.

All those who signed up for Papal events have been given a place and we are now collecting the money.  For Hyde Park the cost is £5 including children.  For Cofton Park the cost is £25.  Please put the money in an envelope saying which event you are attending and the names of those you are paying for.  This can be posted through the Presbytery letter box. Please remember that if you gave your name for either event but are now unable to attend you still need to pay as the Parish will be charged if your name is on the list.

It is regretted that you cannot transfer your booking to another person.

All those attending the Papal events will need to take with them some form of photo Identity eg Passport or driving licence.

THE BISHOPS OF ENGLAND AND WALES:

Have produced a prayer book/Missal called ‘Magnificat’ for us to use during September in conjunction with the visit of the Holy Father and contains all the services, prayers and hymns that will be used.  The Archbishop has asked that every family should have a copy and it will be a memento of the visit of the Holy Father.  The books are available from the Paper Shop this weekend and are free but we are asked to make a donation of £2 for each copy.

CAR PARK CLEANING VOLUNTEERS:

CAFOD:

Next weekend there will be a second collection after every Mass organised by CAFOD to help with the relief effort after the floods in Pakistan.
