A BIG THANK YOU to all who helped to make our Parish Mission so special: To our overall and
individual area co-ordinators, and to all who helped through prayer, publicity, printing and
photocopying, accommodation, hospitality and teas & coffees, flowers and visual displays, transport,
visiting, music, our youth event and parish social, the Mass with the Anointing of the Sick, and all the
hard work that went on in the background which enabled the Mission to run so smoothly. It was a
truly graced time and we pray that the blessings of the Mission may continue in the life of our parish
in the coming weeks and months.
