Information
WEBSITE
PHOTOS
If you think you have a photo which deserves a place on the website,
www.strichardsparish.uklinux.net then here's what we would like you
to do . . .
Carefully, on the back of the photo,
a.) write your name,
b.) write the names of those in the photo, and
c.) write something about what's happening, eg 'After his First Communion'.
On
an envelope with your photo inside, write 'Website Photo'. If there
is too much to write then slip a separate piece of paper in the envelope
with the photo. Envelopes can be taken to Mrs Snape's Classroom where
they will be picked up on Friday 3rd May and will be returned to Mrs
Snape on Friday 17th May. The loan of your photo will be accepted as
permission to place them on the Internet. We will let you know in the
newsletter as soon as you can see your photos online.
October
1st 1927
Were you around then, when the Foundation Stone of the church was
laid ? This year the church building will be 75 years old. Any ideas how
to mark this moment in the life of our parish community? How would you
like to celebrate this?
Follow
up Deanery Day
Wednesdays 15th & 22nd May from 7.30 pm - 9.30 pm at Holy Family Parish
Hall, Boothstown
We begin to look at the future and how parishes will work with only 3
or 4 priests working in the Deanery. What is our role as Christians, as
Catholics, and how will we bring Godıs Kingdom here on earth ? Everyone
is welcome . . . it does not matter if you were not at the meeting in
December. Young or old, Catholic or not, those who attend church regularly
and those who celebrate special occasions and major life events. . . are
welcome. Your voice and your thoughts are needed !
