CATHOLIC CHILDREN'S SOCIETY CRIB APPEAL:
The Society would like to thank the parishioners of the Diocese of Westminster for all their support last year, which enabled us to offer a wide range of services to needy children and their families.  We are not only able to help with toys and hampers over the Christmas season, but we can offer support those who are homeless or living on very meagre means.  If you would like to support the charity in any way, please contact Patricia Hatton at 73, St. Charles Square, London W10 6EJ, tel: 89695305 or Catholic Children's Society website.

The collection at the Crib will be for the Society.  Thank you for your kind donations.
