Many Thanks
Prisoners Week
This week and especially this week-end we are asked to pray for people in prison and their families. . This year’s theme is ‘Join us in hope’’. Imagine if we all were just defined by the worst thing we had done! It would not be easy for any of us. My experience is that is exactly was prisons do people in prison and other people’s perception of them. I also note that due to the pressure on the prison system many I am meeting more inmates from across the country. Due to the remoteness of HMP Northumberland many do not receive visits
Pupils from Years 1 and 4 will join us for Mass on Tuesday at 10.00 am.

The Journey of Faith Programme continues Wednesday at 6.30 pm in the Presbytery. The topic is “The Drama of Salvation’. So far we have two enquirers, Lee and Clare Jones, who are hoping to come into the Church next Easter along with their three young daughters, Please keep them in your prayers
