A message from Fr John
Posted on: 08/11/2020
Dear Friends
Good morning - I hope you’re managing to keep your spirits up during this new phase of lockdown.
I have attached an article from the Tablet which gives us a whole other perspective on religious life and living with what some think of as 'special needs’. I think it is an invitation to the whole Church to give thanks for the many gifts with God has endowed humankind. And Bishop Varden is very special too.

Apologies for the small print.
St Joseph, protector of the Church, pray for us
Every blessing
