Fifth Sunday of Lent

Bruce Hixson Smith Woman Taken in Adultery (2002).

 

PARISH OF ST MARY AND ST CATHERINE

There is a pastoral letter from Archbishop Malcolm this Sunday encouraging everyone to write to their MP about the Assisted Suicide Bill in Parliament. There will be postcards available in church to assist you in doing so. A very suitable Lenten act to add to your prayer, fasting and almsgiving!

Next week on Palm Sunday, children are invited to take a special part in the Procession before the 10.30am when the palms are blest.

Laetare Sunday

 

Parable of the Prodigal Son by William George Rich, 1884.

PARISH OF ST MARY AND ST CATHERINE


MOTHERING SUNDAY: While we honor our mothers on this day, we recall that the Church is also our Mother.  We also honour Our Blessed Lady as Mother of the Church and the mother of each one of us, committed to her by Our Lord from the Cross. Fittingly, children are invited to bring flowers TODAY at the 5pm Mass & the 10.30am Mass, and join Fr Simon in the procession at the start of Mass to present flowers before the statue of Our Lady. 

Children, please come to the sacristy before Mass.
