A message from Fr John

Posted on: 02/02/2021

Dear Friends

Good morning

A sad day as we mourn the death of Captain Tom - a remarkable character by any standards. May he rest in peace and the good Lord comfort his family.

Someone has asked me if there’s anything else we can do to support the people of Myanmar. Prayers are by far the best we can do, but you might also want to write to the Ambassador of Myanmar in this country.

The address of the Ambassador is:

19a Charles Street
London
W1J 5DX

And the polite form of address is: Your Excellency

And on a lighter but poignant note, you might like the following cartoon (I hope it’s not copyright)

St Joseph, patron of our parish during these days, pray for us
Every blessing
Fr John
