Thank you for visiting our pages.
| We would love it if you would add to this guestbook we are keeping! |
I used to go to Christ Church and I have seen some pictures of my friends when we were little and they were in the Brownies and they made me cry. I miss you so much and I hope that the Brownie pack is still in good condition. I went to St. Mary's and I loved it I hope that soon I will be able to have a stronger relationship with the friends that I saw on the photos over the wires. We moved over here quite a while ago and we will be back next year. I miss the church but we were able to visit when my cousin had her wedding this summer and I'm longing to be able to participate in the masses again I hope that all the parish is in good condition and I can't wait to see you all again.

We are preparing the second phase of our development programme, namely Christchurch Parish Centre. We shall need a great deal of money, lets say about £100,000. To that end we are inviting parishioners to come up with ideas and projects for fund raising e.g.swimming, marathons, coffee mornings, cheese and wine evenings, anything. To start us off we have a talk with slides on the Round the World Yaght Race, by Neville Maggs Thursday 18th November in the Centre at 7:30. A collection will be taken.

I am a parishioner of St. Stephens in Welling and took the "tour" of your beautiful church after following a link from the new St. Stephens site (www.saintstephens.co.uk). Although I regularly drive past your church I had no idea how truly beautiful it is inside (aside from the beauty I always find in a place of worship). Maybe one day I will come to mass at Christchurch and enjoy the splendour in person.

FR EDWARD KELLY, CRL Just to inform members of the parish
community at Christchurch, that there will be a special Memorial
Mass for Fr Edward Kelly on Sunday 7th December 10.00am at St
Peter-in-Chains, Stroud Green. As Fr Edward exercised his
ministry in a variety of our CRL houses; Cornwall, Eltham and at
Stroud Green we wanted to have a special Mass to celebrate his
life and minstry. Both Fr Denis O'Gorman and myself travelled to
Ballinasloe to receive Fr Edward's Body into Moor church and
celebrate the Requiem Mass on the following day - 11th November.
Fr Edward is buried just beside the entrance to the church. I am
grateful to Fr Denis for the two weeks he spent in Ballinasloe
being at Fr Edward's bedside for many hours each day before he
died. We look forward to welcoming members of Christchurch parish
for the memorial Mass at St Peter-in-Chains. Fr Edward's sister,
nieces and nephews will be present for the celebration. Eternal
rest grant unto him O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon him.
May he rest in peace.

I think) This is also the comemeration of Fr. Anthony's 50 years
as a member of the CRL. Please do come if you can. It's a sort of

Welcome back to Christchurch. I hope you had a good
holiday, if you managed to get away.I hope you are pleased with
the work that has been done in church. Regular bulletins have
been posted throughout and so you will be familiar with the
details. The standard of the work has been high, carried out on
time and within budget. It has been supervised throughout by Nick
Craddy and Paul Clark who have given generously of their time to
be on hand to supervise, move things, prepare for Sunday and much
else. The parish owes them a debt of gratitude. Thank you too to
all those who turned out on Saturday mornings to get the church
ready for use. Thank you to the many generous donors who have
helped pay for the work. It has been a shared enterprise an
example of the parish working together. We still have the benches
to sort out, but that's another story.

If somebody could let me know what is being arranged I would be
most grateful. My home telephone number is 01903 521543 (24 Hour

Hi I used to live in Eltham with my family pre 1979 when we
then moved up here to Lincolnshire. My mum and dad (Jim and Dolly
Proctor) were both very involved with Christ Church Parish at the
time (scouts, coffee mornings, fetes. This was in the days of
Father Smith etc. It was great to find your website and have a
look around again. Sadly my mum died two years ago, and my dad is
moving out to Thailand in January to be near to my older brother,
Mike. I still have very fond memories of Christ Church and the
folk masses, St Mary's and St Thomas Moore's schools. The parish
in Louth is very small and rural compared to Eltham. I'm now a
cathechist, which is quite demanding as there are no Catholic
schools here at all. I run my own business in marketing and have
decided that I'm going to set up a new national website (www.romancatholicfaith.org.uk)
with project sheets, games and general information for Catholic
children and a RC parish directory. I was pleased to see that you
have some good games and quizzes on your site! Will visit your
site again soon. Maria Vincent

very active in these areas in Sydenham, now he has retired back

Parish of St James & St John, Tiverton Dear friends,
Thank you for your farewell gift. Your generosity doesn't
surprise me, but I still can't get my head round the extent of it!
I'm sorry I shan't be coming back to thank you in person, but I
have been gone for well over a year now and we have all moved on
- in my case to this lively Devon parish, where I have been made
so welcome. I think of my brother |Christopher's funeral - that
wonderful celebration of memories, love and prayer - as having
bee a kind of joint farewll to both of us. The happiest and most
fulfilling years of my life wewre spent with him and with you at
Christ Church. I shan't ever forget what we all shared, and for
that, especially, |I thank you. Fr Paul.

can give me would be appreciated (website addresses perhaps?) as
I'm trying to set up a previous pupils' association. Check out
Friends Reunited - a few of us leavers from 1979 are in touch
with each other and it would be nice to see more. And a message
for Peter Eastwood: I'm sure your singing was never that bad when
I was in the Priory Players - maybe that's why you were always
set-building!! Any ex-Priory Players who want to get in touch

salvation through your saints and prophets. Look with compassion
on the whole human family; take away the arrogance and hatred
which infect our hearts; break down the walls that separate us;
unite us in bonds of love; and work through our struggle and
confusion to accomplish your purposes on earth; that, in your
good time, all nations and races may serve you in justice, peace
and harmony around your heavenly throne. (Amen) PRAYER: Merciful
God, please give to peoples of the world the required wisdom and
determination, to learn to live in peace like brothers and
sisters, by ending the divisions and hatreds created by our past
and present elders. (Amen)

It is now over three months sice the untimely death of my

thoughts and the memories of the wonderful love and support shown
at his funeral will never be forgotton. To me Christopher was a
very special brother and the love and afection shown at his
funeral will forever remain with us as a family. In his memory at
Christchurch Priory I, my wife,Pat and daughter Rebecca would
very much like to "contribute" something in his memory
and in particular to the Youth Group. Could some body please make
a suggestion for the possible purchase of equipment or an anual
donation towards a specific project etc. Any sugestions would be
most welcome even if it is only for an annual celebration of the
Eucharist in his memory. Thankyou all once again for all the love
an support afforded to us all at his funeral and the ongoing
support that youhave all given to Paul. Many thanks John Rea. PS

I grew up in Bodmin so have very fond memories of the CRL.
It is so sad that lack of vocations meant the order had to leave
Bodmin. I remember Father Christopher from when I attended
Bodmin's catholic primary school and was saddened to learn of his
death when I attended mass on Easter Sunday back in Bodmin. I
don't think it is any accident that people who were in my school
class back then are still attending mass now, when so many people
fall away as they get older. The inspiration of enthusiasticambassadors for the faith such as Father Christopher was very
important. Maybe when I am in the area sometime I'll get the
opportunity to visit Eltham. Wishing parishioners and the Canons
all the best. Dan

FROM FR CHRISTOPHER I have been persuaded to join the
"modern" society and am now on the web. I have been
working with computers since they began but have nevr ventured
this far, and I am so grateful to Michael and Edward for making
this New Year message possible. Those of who know me will
understand what a difficult year this has been for me. I have so
much missed my parish ministry that sometimes I feel almost drwan
to despair - but that is a sin ins't it? You know that I mean.
Fot the last three months I have not been able to speak,
something has gone wrong with my voicebox!? - over the next two
months that we will be sorted out at Guys, and I also have to
have a further CT Scan at St Thomas's. I really hope and pray
that after that I may be among you again. Do you have a New Year
Resolution? I have. It won't be of immediate help to all, but to
all of you are sick or suffering please join with me in trying to
promise to say as ofen as you can "Into your hands, Lod, I
commend my spirit." That prayer is a complete prayer of
trust in God, it is as if we are saying to Him : Lord, I cannot
solve this (these) problems, but I am going to leave tyem in your
hands. It is something really wonderful that the very Son of God
prayed that prayer on the cross - it makes it so poignant and
impoertant. Hope to see you all soom, God bless.

Dear Michael (and Edward) The Priory/Parish Office finally
crawled out of the age of the dinosaurs and acquired a computer
today! So this is the first time I viewed the web site I'd heard
so much about. Brilliant. Well Done!

Prior to looking here I always wondered who to ask to find out
specific information about the parish, now I know where to find
it.

I can't remember why I looked in here now but I thought
this might be something to do. Michael, are you going to do
something about those pictures? Because they're about five years
old now and the ones of the children's choir is 'wrong' because
there are about twenty other people now!!! Byexxx

I am a regular at 11 am. Love your influence on the music
and the web site. What about the round of applause last Sunday!
Well deserved. Now - about Father Anthony. Was that a joke? Has
to be, surely! He is great and a very good influence on the ex-atheist,
now Chritian I drag along each week. I think it would be a very
good idea if the Church provided an Alpha course. What about it?
It is an excellent lead in for non believers and is being done by
all sorts of rather fringe churches.

I've found this website really interesting and will 'visit'
regularly. I will take the opportunity to say how much I enjoyed
last Sunday's 11.00 Mass, I attend this service each week, and
thought that the choir was absolutly beautiful last week (23.7).
I've also noticed that there always seems to be a greater
response from the congregation when 'old favourite' hymns are
chosen! Keep up the good work!

Many additions since I first looked last March. The site
certainly has the WOW! factor - if there was a competition of
church web sites, this one would surely win. Can we please have
the House of Prayer featured - Sister Catherine has some existing
photographs taken by Phil Tatt. More people need to know about it
and how privileged we are to be able to have Exposition of the
Blessed Sacrament daily.

Please will you put on the weekly calendar that SVP meets
every Monday night at the Priory at 7.30 pm - but not Bank
Holiday Mondays. Next meeting 10 April following meeting 8 May.
We are always looking for people to help us in our work - mainly
visiting the housebound in Eltham. There are other local
difficulties needing help - single parent families. Did have a
request to help find furniture for refugee family in Greenwich,
but passed that on to Greenwich contact.

Well - it took us a while to find it because we couldn't
find last week's newsletter but after an hour or so - hey-presto.
It's really good, and a great idea. I think you should get a
better picture of Fr.Paul because he's much friendlier than that
picture portrays. See you soon.
