Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration (on Tuesdays) New times 10.30am-4.00pm, then again 7.00pm-8.00pm.
We hear in the Gospel how we are not to hide our talents that we have been given by the Lord. In the
original parable a 'talent' was a measure of money. We see this in our own lives as all our resources,
especially the skills we have. How can we use these in Christ's service? What prevents us? In parishes, all
too often, the same few do so much. It is better for many to contribute a little than a few to give too much
time and energy. That is family, that is community.
Our Parish is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and vulnerable adults

LUMEN GENTIUM – Diocesan Jubilee Course 2014 : The Body of Christ. The Church is the Body of Christ with
many and diverse members. All the baptised are part of it and work for the Kingdom of God in their own ways and
callings. The ordained priesthood is linked to that of all the baptised. All are called to serve, to offer prayers and praises.
The ordained priests offer the sacrifice of the mass, perform the sacraments and exercise authority but all are part of the
service and priesthood of the baptised. There are many styles of service and religious communities have their own
distinctive place within the Church, as well as the ministry of others in the family and the workplace.
Vocation Matters: Promoting priestly vocations (3): "Come and join in your master's happiness". Genuine serenity is
found only in Jesus; we can't make our own happiness! Consider the young men in your community/parish: have you
thought that God may be calling them to be priests? Have you suggested it to them? Or prayed for them? A personal
suggestion/invitation from you can make all the difference.
