Dear friends,

This Sunday is the 21st in Ordinary Time. In the Gospel readings we hear of many people turning away from Jesus finding his teaching too hard to accept. Only a few are left but as Peter says Lord, who shall we go to? You have the message of eternal life, and we believe. Click here for the Scripture Readings.

Magnificat
New monthly books are available from Sunday, for September. They contain mass readings and reflections for everyday of the month together with Morning and Evening Prayers. These are beautifully produced and a really good way of deepening your faith. There are 20 copies available please see Nicolas if you would like one, a donation towards the cost would be appreciated.

Church Open Day with Cream Teas
Saturday 28th August 1-5pm, cream teas, churchyard tours, children’s games, bric-a-brac & book stall and Prosecco bar. Please come and invite friends! Offers of homemade cakes are very welcome! 

Mass time CHANGE 
From the 7th September the Tuesday evening mass will be at the slightly later time of 6.30pm. This is to allow those returning to places of work time make the mass. 

Church Condolences for Marta’s family
Postcards will be available from this Sunday for individuals to write messages for Marta’s family, I will then package them up together with pictures of our church to be sent to her family from all of us at Old S.Pancras.

See you on Sunday,

Fr James
