Thank you for your ongoing generous support of the dues, the two weekly diocesan collections, 1st and 2nd, and your contributions to the Parish. These are the Family offerings, direct debit contributions, and other donations upon which the upkeep of the parish totally depends. Thank you for your generosity.

 

Pope Francis on the Environment

The Pope’s climate encyclical makes it clear Catholics cannot be passive in face of climate change. Our present lifestyle is causing this warming.   The only way to stop the earth from reaching catastrophic temperatures is to drastically reduce our carbon footprint to net zero. Each of us must learn firstly to reduce what we consume; secondly to re-use and repurpose more things; thirdly, to recycle everything possible.  Can you do more?
