Some of you will be aware that priests are permitted to take a break after both Christmas and Easter. I will be away from Monday the 12th to Friday the 16th. I am trying to arrange for at least one Mass to be said in the parish during the week. Please keep an eye on next week’s bulletin in this regard. I managed to get a cheap flight to Rome - £50 each way!

Though I will not be on pilgrimage as such, as is my custom I am always happy to receive any intentions you may have that I can pray for on your behalf at the tombs of the Apostles.
