Application forms are in the porch at the back of the church. Thank you.

CLEANING THE CHURCH:
We are looking for people who can spare 10 – 15 minutes after the 10 am Mass on Mondays to help clean the vessels, altar cloths and candles in the Sacristy. Also, the altar cloths need to be washed each week – would you be able to join our rota to take them home to wash and iron? The more people on the rota, the less often you will need to do this.
If you think you could help with either of these very important tasks please contact the Parish Office – thank you.
