RECEIVING HOLY COMMUNION
I would like to bring to your notice that Ministering Holy Communion by
intinction is not recommended in the Dioceses of England and Wales. May I kindly request all communicants
to consume the precious Body of Christ as soon as you respond “Amen” when the Clergy/Extraordinary
Minister says, “The Body of Christ” and then proceed to receive the Precious Blood of Christ if you choose
to receive it. Thank you.
SILENCE IN CHURCH
Please may I remind everyone to be mindful of other people who are praying in Church before and after Mass. Make sure that your mobiles and any devices are switched off and, also not to speak during Mass itself. Why don’t you come along to the Parish Hall after Mass on Sundays to speak to other parishioners while having a cup of tea?
POLITE NOTICE
It is now possible to pay for items from the Repository using the Digital Collection Plates (Dona Stations) found at the back of both St George’s and Our Lady’s. Thank you.

MASS OF INDUCTION
I sincerely wish to thank you all for your participation at my induction Mass. It was a joyous occasion
coming together to celebrate the beginning of a new chapter in the history of these parishes as I began
my ministry as your parish priest. I thank Bishop David, all clergy from our own diocese and other
places. I also thank all people of God who had joined in these celebrations. Very grateful to those who
have organised the buffet and contributed it. God bless you all.
There is an item on the Diocesan website with photos from the Mass.
