Brother Sun, Sister Moon - Film Evening on Monday 27th May

Fr Peter writes: “I have booked the small hall for 7:30pm on Monday 27th May to show “Brother Sun, Sister Moon” – the 1972 film about St Francis and St Clare. It is rated PG (although there is some nudity when Francis rebels against his father and stands naked in the town square). All are welcome”.

Deacon Dom:

Fr Peter writes: “Good News! Deacon Dom will be ordained a priest by Cardinal Vincent at Westminster Cathedral at 10:30am on Saturday 29th June. You are all invited! Dom will celebrate his very first Mass as a priest, at St Mary’s on Sunday 30th June at 11am. If you would like to be part of a committee to help organise Dom’s party after his first Mass, please put your name on the “Fr Dom Party Sheet” at the back of the church. I will then call a meeting and we can start organising. Deacon Dom will join us for all Masses on Sunday 16th June.”
