IT’S JUST WONDERFUL
that while our parish (and Father
Gerald) start our journey of change we
have a priest we all know and love arriving this Sunday evening. Having Father
Tom here until Easter will make the transition so much easier for all of us, we
are very fortunate, so welcome back to St. Teresa’s Father Tom,
it’s wonderful to have you here.
AND TALKING OF CHANGE Please note that St. Teresa’s has a change of e-mail address. The new e-mail
address is presbytery@st-teresas.org.uk For a short
while we will be running both the
old and the new address, but please add the new contact address and delete the
old one on your computer as soon as possible, thank you.
THANK YOU AGAIN for your wonderful farewell to me, I
have never had a standing ovation before. Thank you for the lovely presents and
great pile of money. I am settling in very nicely and feel quite at home in my
little flat. Bishop Peter came to see me twice on Ash Wednesday and he was
pleased to see how lovely my friends from the parish had made it for me.
