Today's
Gospel : Luke 1:57 - 66; 80
Call to Faith : John the Baptist was
chosen to announce to the people the coming of the Saviour.
Exploring Gospel Values : John knew everyone wanted to greet
God as Saviour. He was sure the right way to greet the good news of
a Saviour is to have a clean heart. He said that the way for people
to be ready to receive the good news is to change their ways.
Call to Action : The best way to greet Jesus is to begin by spreading
love in our families.

Notices
Please
remember in your prayers the family and friends of: Marie Walsh
whose Requiem Mass will take place on Tuesday at 10 am followed by Committal
at St Oswald's Cemetery .
May she rest in the Peace of Christ.
At the
Garden Party Social it was announced that Christine will be next
year's organiser. I'm sure by early next year again, she will be looking
for your support in the smooth running of the event. Two prizes were
given to stallholders, one was the 'Best Dressed Stall Award' to The
Price Family whose Toy Tombola was set off by some ingenious branches
and a honey-pot! And the second for the 'Non-Stop Stall', with Mairead
McLoughlin, Laura Joyce and Linda Ryder whose heads were not lifted
from their braiding and tattooing all afternoon and even continuing
after most people had gone home. Well Done to all of the Stallholders.

I've hooked a great deal for us on Circle seats which should have
been nearly £20 . . . We have 45 tickets for £9.50 to see this show
on Thursday 15th November at 2.30 pm. Those who put their name on the
sheet in the Narthex have first refusal. We would like to know how many
people will want transport arranging, (this will be an additional cost
which we will keep to a minimum,) and how many of these are registered
with Ring and Ride. It will be in the Newsletter if any seats become
available later. Please pay Fr Stephen for your tickets a.s.a.p. Thanks.
