Mission Sunday comes only once a year and on this special day we are given the opportunity to express our unity with and support to Christian communities everywhere. Support is needed by prayer as well as financially. Every cent of the money donated to this collection goes into a universal fund and is distributed to the missions most in need. All aid is greatly appreciated by communities less fortunate than ourselves and “Together in Faith” may we continued to spread the good news in God’s name.
CONGRATULATIONS TO THE FOLLOWING COUPLE WHO WERE MARRIED IN OUR PARISH THIS WEEK: Gillian O’Sullivan, Dooneen & Rajesh Rajan, Chester.
