7 August '22 - 19th Sunday of the Year

Good day - A note about the Birthday List. A sheet of birthdays was printed. But to understand the process, there is NO BIRTHDAY LIST.   Churches have  a Parish members Register not a list of birthdays.  The birthdays are extracted from the parishioners register. Unfortunately people have written their names at the list in the entrance to our church and not contacted Angelique or Manual. If you would like to complete the registration in the comfort of your home you can register the adults and  children on two separate forms - the links are below. Sadly the names written in the entrance below the list will not appear in the Bulletin. So please register as a parishioner. Let us be one and stand as one united in Christ

Bless those who make our roads and bridges, homes and buildings, to give us ways of travel and places to work and rest. Lord, hear us.

Give health to the sick, joy to the sorrowful and strength to the weak. Lord, hear us..

R: Lord, graciously hear us

May Christ be with us and beside us, in the hearts of those who love us, in the lives of those who need us. Lord, hear us.

R: Lord, graciously hear us.

Lord God, your Christ lives in his church and we shall see him face to face when he comes again in glory. Help us to show that we hope for his coming by sharing in his saving work. We ask this through Christ our Lord.
