The Catholic community is very grateful for the considerable help we had from other churches with the many events of last year. No big civic events planned this year, but there will be another Parish Picnic in the summer - details below. Another group of young children are preparing for their first Holy Communion. Ben's comics are back in action - a pictorial contemporary representation of the Gospels; an exemplar may appear here later this year.
A Catholic house group has been in operation for several months and is proving popular. This is in addition to the ecumenical Lent house groups that take place.
Pilgrim groups from Germany and The Netherlands have started again and we hope to feature some of these in our images page.
Saturday 7th May - Holy Cross Church at 19:30. A concert by Julia and Franz-Peter Huber accompanied by Neil Page. Franz-Peter is the Choral Director of Capella Cathedralis Choir at Fulda Cathedral. He brought the choir on a visit to our church last August. They gave a concert at Holy Cross during the evening which was a great success. Tickets £5 at the door, students free. Please support this important link we have with Fulda.
