Thirty-Third Sunday in Ordinary Time
Dear Friends, Just a reminder to everyone that we have a parish
book and film club. This is an MC3 initiative. Our two recent
events have been very successful but not very well attended.
The discussions after the film “Gravity” and the book “Sisters of
Sinai” were very lively and stimulating. Our next event is this
coming Thursday when we will discuss Stephen Grosz’s book
“The Examined Life”. Each event takes place at 7.30pm in the
Parochial House.
