We will have coffee, tea and biscuits in the St. Pope John Paul II Chapel at Our Lady of Lourdes after the 10.00am Mass and Stations of the Cross on Wednesday, May 1st . If you are at the Mass on that day, please stay behind and spend some time socialising and sharing with our fellow parishioners.

Next Saturday, May 4th , is the first Saturday of May. We will therefore celebrate the First Saturday devotions after the 10am Mass. May is the month of Our Lady, so it is a very special time to take part in these devotions if you have not done so before. There will be Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament during the devotions and confessions will be available.

Next weekend the Church celebrates World Communications Day. This year, the theme is: “Artificial Intelligence and the Wisdom of the Heart: Towards a Fully Human Communication”. To mark World Communications Day, there will be a second collection at all Masses next weekend to support the communications work of the Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales.

Heddiw bydd y gymuned Gymraeg yn dathlu Offeren yn Gymraeg am 4.30pm.  Today, we welcome the Welsh language community who will be celebrating Mass in Welsh at 4.30pm. Croeso!
