World Mission Sunday 20th October 2013.
The theme of this year’s Mission Sunday is ‘Growing in Faith’. The annual collection for World Mission Sunday will take place at all Masses this weekend and will replace the SHARE Collection.
Slowly Making Cents!
The suggestion of a 10 cent (or more) offering to cover the cost of printing this weekly missalette, that we started two weeks ago, doesn’t (as yet) appear to be making the cents or the sense! we were expecting. A number of people told us how they just took up the sheet as usual, never thought of the 10 cent but upped the offering ‘on the plate!! when they read the piece ‘about it’ Just a reminder that what goes ‘on the plate’ goes straight to the Diocese – what goes to parish stays in the parish!!
