Parish News and Announcements  

The children of St Godric's Primary School will be leading both the 9am St Godric's and 10:30am St Joseph's Masses this Sunday in celebration of the upcoming Feast of St Godric. They will take part in reading, the offertory and have written this week's Bidding prayers.

Our annual Memorial Sunday Mass will take place on Sunday 24th November at St. Joseph's at 3.00pm. All families of deceased parishioners who have been bereaved during the year 1 st November 2023 – 31st October 2024 will receive a personal invitation from Fr. Colm to come along and light a candle in remembrance of their loved ones. Fr. Colm will light three larger candles (one for St. Joseph’s, one for St. Godric’s, and one for St. Bede’s Chapel) which represent the deceased members of the wider parish and our families and friends. These will be lit at every Mass until Christmas. Please come along to the Mass and join us for seasonal refreshments in the Jubilee Room afterwards. Everyone welcome.
