Mass Intentions

Sacrament of Reconciliation : Saturday 12 noon - 12.30 pm

Friday Devotions
It seems inappropriate to be saying the Stations during the Easter Season, so for Friday Devotions we shall offer Benediction with Evening Prayer as our weekly Devotion Service. Starting this week. 7pm

Notices

Thank you to Fr Arthur from St Ambrose who celebrated Mass yesterday evening at Sacred Heart and Fr Stephen Pritchard who will celebrate Mass this morning at St Richard's and Sacred Heart, Hindsford.

Thank you to all who made an effort to attend Mass during the Lenten Season and those who were able to celebrate Morning Prayer.

Many thanks to all who helped in the preparation and celebration of the Easter Triduum Services. Altar Servers, Altar Cloth Cleaners, Black Out Men, (Easter Vigil) Church Cleaners, Dramatists (Maundy Thursday), Flower Ladies, Service Sheets, Musicians and Singers, Fr Neil and any individual role or task inadvertently overlooked.

Vincent Hankinson has been accepted as a late entry for the London Marathon and has chosen to donate any sponsorship to the Sacred Heart Building Fund. Sponsor forms will be available outside Church after Mass this week and next week.

£254 was raised towards funds for the Senior Parishioners Christmas Party.

Just a Minute . . .
If we could shrink the earth's population to a village of precisely 100 people, with all the human ratios remaining the same, it would look something like the following :
There would be :
57 Asians
21 Europeans
14 from the Western Hemisphere, both north and south
8 Africans
52 would be female
48 would be male
70 would be non white
30 would be white
70 would be non Christian
30 would be Christian
89 would be heterosexual
11 would be homosexual
6 people would possess 59% of the world's wealth and all 6 would be from the United States
80 would live in substandard housing
70 would be unable to read
50 would suffer from malnutrition
1 would be near death
1 would have a college education
1 would own a computer
When one considers our world from such a compressed perspective, the need for acceptance, understanding and education becomes glaringly apparent.
