Parish Annual Meeting 3 July at 7pm.

 As part of our 75 Anniversary celebrations, we are having a parish meeting with cheese and wine.  During the meeting our parish finance committee will give us a presentation reviewing the income and expenditure from 2025.

We will also have an opportunity to celebrate all the work various groups do for us in the parish.

If you have any questions about the parish or topics you would like us to discuss please let me know.

Fr Jonas Opoku Gyamfi 

I have invited Fr Jonas to visit the parish on Monday 6 July and to stay over and be with us to celebrate the 10am Mass on Tuesday and stay for our coffee morning on 7 July at 10.30am.
