Children's Liturgy

10:30am Sunday Mass at the Convent Chapel. Term time only.

Choir

The Parish has a small but thriving choir and a couple of organists who play at our two churches.  We sing at the 10.30 Mass each Sunday and have singers who lead the singing at the 6pm and 9am Masses.  We are also able to sing with the organ at the 6pm Mass once a month and occasionally on Tuesday morning.  We also sing at other events during the year.  The choir is always open to welcome new members who wish to  join. Choir practice is 6.15pm every Thursday at the Convent Chapel. We are a friendly and fun bunch who enjoy bringing music to the liturgy, please feel free to just come and say hello.

Silver Circle

Silver Circle is a friendly social group for seniors which meets on the last Thursday of each month from 2-4pm in the Convent House, (except for July & August, with December being a Christmas meal). Although it has a Catholic ethos and has been there for our parishioners for many years, anyone is welcome to join us. We hope to offer lifts where needed. 

The main reason people come is the chance to meet and chat with others. However we have different activity each month eg. quizzes, games like cards and dominoes, keep fit sessions or a speaker etc. However we always finish with tea and snacks and a raffle. We ask everyone to bring a raffle prize - eg something simple like a packet of biscuits, or an unwanted gift or a book you have read - and then buy a ticket (£1 at the moment) which funds the food. Everyone goes home with a prize. We have at least one outing a year, plus sometimes a meal at the Harboro.

Although a seniors group, anyone younger is welcome too if  they can help setting up, moving furniture, serving tea or offer lifts etc

If you are interested in joining or helping, contact Jean Garrett 07960 975483, jeangarrett1949@gmail.com or the parish office.
