Notices

Taize Prayer . . .
This Summer some of our young people went to Taize, an ecumenical youth retreat centre in France. They have been so impressed by what they saw and heard that they want to share that experience with others and so we are starting our own Taize Prayer Group in the Deanery on the 3rd Sunday of each month. The first meeting will be at St Josephıs at 7.30 pm on 18th November - if you want to know more about Taize or Taize Prayer come along . . . Fr Ronnie's your man for any questions.

Thank you to Chris Rigby and Jack Collier for organising and running the Prize Bingo evening last week. An amount of £200 was raised toward the cost of the Senior Parishionersı Christmas Party in December. Thanks also to those who helped and all who donated prizes.
