ANNUAL WEEF COLLECTION:
Pope Benedict XVl has called on all Christian communities to encourage and support those who have said ‘Yes’ to God.  One way to this is to contribute to the annual collection for the Priest Training Fund which takes place today.  Everything that you give is used to support our seminarians.  Please give as much as you can afford as it costs £20,000 a year to train a seminarian and this work depends on donations. Thank you. We welcome James Reynolds, a seminarian of Allen Hall, who will speak to us this weekend of his personal experience of studying for the Priesthood.
