CONTACTLESS COLLECTIONS
With the absence of banks in the village, and COVID handling of money - we have joined the Diocese with the contactless donation system called DONA.
There is a stand in the porch of Our Lady of Lourdes Church to receive contactless payments. Please use the hand sanitiser before using.
You can select the amount you wish to donate and simply tap your card for contactless giving.
If you are able to gift aid - this will take a couple of minutes initially to encode your details (easy to follow prompts) and only has to be set up the once. You are also able to now donate via this link. Thank you very much.

PETITION: That the Government Does Not Reduce Overseas Aid:
https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/561068
There are suggestions that the Government is planning to reduce its commitment to giving 0.7% of GDP as overseas aid. We want to keep this foreign aid and help the world's poor. Please sign the petition. At 10,000 signatures the Government will respond to the petition. At 100,00 the petition will be considered for debate. Thank you.

The Prayer of St Alphonsus
Communion Spiritual prayer
St Patrick's is now open for Sunday 9am Masses.
We are going to attempt not using the Eventbrite system for the time being - and monitoring how full we get. If we feel we need to revert back to Eventbrite the link is below.
For the time being it is not necessary to request tickets.
In case we need to revert back to tickets for 9am Mass on Sundays at St Patrick's parishioners will then need to book a free ticket through Eventbrite to confirm attendance for the limited indoor seating. Please follow the following link...
https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/st-patricks-sunday-mass-tickets-120007661145
No need to print your Eventbrite ticket, give your name at the church door to be ticked off the list of attendees. If you haven’t had an email re your Mass booking, then you aren’t booked and on the list for that Sunday. You can book several Sundays at a time and on Eventbrite you can also cancel a particular booking.
