Children’s Liturgy

so there will be no children’s liturgy.
Confirmation
Bishop Crispian will confer the Sacrament of Confirmation in our Parish

Candidates and parents are invited to learn more about this important
Sacrament at the following Information Evening: Wednesday 11th January

THE UNION
Thought
for the Week
Several times in our lives we might be asked to produce a copy of our
Baptismal Certificate, for example at our First Communion, Confirmation,
Marriage or Ordination. These Certificates might lead us to believe that
Baptism is something that happened in the past; over and finished with
and now we get on with life. Contrary, none of us has been
baptised; we are all being baptised. Baptism plunges us
into an ongoing way of living whereby our lives are patterned
after Christ’s.

Thank
You Father Joe writes: “Thank you to all those who contributed to our celebration of Christmas and a special ‘thank you’ for your generous Christmas Offering.” |
Fairtrade
As our Diocese is a Fairtrade Diocese as well as Fareham and Portchester
Parish, this is an important issue that affects us all. We are fortunate
this weekend in having Marie Malson to speak to us at all Masses on this
important topic.
