Thought from Fr. Colm - 16th November 2025

The  Lumière is upon us again. Let’s hope it continues for years to come.  St. Godric’s will be open between 5pm and 8pm.

 

  The Christmas Fayre is coming up. Volunteers always needed.

 

  Thank you to those who have generously offered their services in response to the Bishop’s recent appeal for school governors.

 

Can I ask for volunteers to be Eucharistic Ministers. Succession is so important for the future of our parish.

 

“Just as a person who is always asserting that he is too good-natured is the very one from whom to expect, on some occasion, the coldest and most unconcerned cruelty, so when any group sees itself as the bearer of civilization this very belief will betray it into behaving barbarously at the first opportunity.”  

Simone Weil
