CONFESSIONS
Saturday:
Collection: Last week’s plate collection came to £474.32. Thank you. CAFOD Harvest Day Appeal: Raised £1087.89 so far. Many thanks. Harvest Thanksgiving: Hopefully some fruit and veg will be appearing at each of the Masses, to be displayed on the table at the altar. We give thanks to God for a successful harvest and remember those who have not been as fortunate. Donations received will go to CAFOD. SVP Raffle: Members of the SVP will be selling raffle tickets after Mass outside church. It is a national raffle, so there is only a limited supply of tickets, so buy now! Evergreens: Evergreens meet on 12th October at 2:00pm in the Link Room (entry via the church). Fr John will be showing some of his holiday slides. Afterwards, in the hall for raffle and refreshments. New Rotas: The latest rotas for eucharistic ministers are now available in the Repository, as are the ones for the church beauticians. Christmas Bazaar: As with last year, we are going to start collecting things for the Christmas Bazaar early, using two weeks to appeal for the different items needed for the stalls. For the next couple of weeks please bring along jigsaws, games, and items for the White Elephant stall. The Bazaar itself will be held on 5th December. Magazines: The latest editions of Catholic Life (£3.00) and St Martin Magazine (40p) are now available at the back of the church. The Livesimply Challenge 2009: Water is life - We can preserve it! Fill your sink when washing and rinsing dishes - don't leave the tap running (saves 8 to 15 gallons a day). Run your washing machine only when full or adjust the water level setting carefully (saves 25-50 gallons a week). Visit www.energysavingtrust.org.uk for more water saving tips. Eco-Arts Project: Wanted: young activist - Are you a young person concerned about the environment? Have your say! Join the fun! Music/drama presentation on 31st October at the Methodist Church.
