The annual collection for WEEF takes place today and it is vital that we support the appeal as more men are now training for the priesthood in our seminary than at any time over the last ten years.  This is very encouraging, but it costs £50 a day to train a priest and this work depends on your donations.  Please give as much as you can.  Gift Aid forms can be found on the envelope.
