Charity Dinner for Ukrainian Refugees

 

Busy organizing a Charity Dinner on

fleeing from the violence in the Ukraine. 

It will be held at the Farington Lodge Hotel 

(next door to the church)

and preceded by 

Solemn Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament,

with a visiting Schola to sing some beautiful music.

Our guest of honour is the Deputy Lord Lieutenant of Lancashire,

The Queen's Platinum Jubilee and Pentecost Sunday

 

We are celebrating the Queen's Platinum Jubilee this Pentecost Sunday. 

Celebratory refreshments after each Mass - the usual cakes and homemade sausage rolls but also a special Jubilee cake and your Parish Priest's attempt at the Jubilee Trifle! 

The 10 am Mass will be filled with beautiful music and chant - see the poster below.

The special music we will be blest with at the 10am Mass today is a reminder of how fortunate we are to have Anthony Dickinson at the helm for parish music, providing this great service to the Church. There can be few parishes about where the call of the Second Vatican Council in the area of sacred music is so well carried out. We sing the Mass, rather than sing at Mass. That means using the texts of the Missal and the rich heritage of some of the most beautiful music ever composed, in accordance with the Council’s injunction that Gregorian chant should be given pride of place and that the organ is the principle instrument to be used in church. It is a work of the Holy Spirit moving among us that we should give great thanks for.
