We came together today for our Parish Eucharist on a rather cold and rainy morning, quite a contrast from last week.The Church was still looking glorious with the harvest festival decorations. Father Roger celebrated the Eucharist, and preached on the gospel from St Luke, the story of the 10 Lepers, of which one, the Samaritan, came back to thank Jesus and praise God. Father Roger pointed out that this story underlined that we must guard against prejudice against those who are different from us.

The Choir sang 'Ave Verum' set by W.A. Mozart. and at the end of the service we said goodbye, for the moment, to Father Roger who will be helping out in other local parishes over the next few weeks. Father Stephen will be back among us next week.







Dont forget the Concert next Sunday evening at 7:00pm when Off Centre will be singing for us. There will be drinks in the interval, and a retiring collection for the New Parish Rooms project.
