MY DAY OFF A WEEK seems to be working out well, thank
God. My close friends, not of this parish, have heard about it
and want to share in the work of keeping me going. I am very grateful for this as I am to
parishioners who do so much for me. No
priest could ask for more. In return I
shall do all I can for you as long as I am able. None of us knows how long she or he has to
go. That’s another aspect of our parish
as a community: we pray for each other’s temporal and spiritual welfare and
that we will be in good shape spiritually when the Lord comes for us. Let us help each other to give a witness to
the world around us as well as to our family and friends.
St T’s FC meet this Sunday from 4-6 pm in
the Walsingham Hall. This month the
activity will include Sport and Games (including a (“Silly Olympics”)
which is being organised by Simon Gibbs and Emily Daly. Everyone from years 4
to 6 are invited…..it would be really good to welcome those who have not, so
far, been able to attend. Next month (July) will be an end of year party and
the August get together will be for next year’s Year 6’s only so that they can
help us to decide upon the format and activities for the following year.
CHAPLAINCY VISITORS Our local hospitals need some committed Chaplaincy visitors to assist the
ecumenical team in delivering good
quality spiritual and religious care. They are looking for people who are good
listeners, clear communicators and able encouragers who are people of Faith.

Deacons and/or contact the Chaplaincy department at Stoke Mandeville Hospital
(01296 316674) or High Wycombe hospital (01494 425072)
PRO-LIFE WITNESS You are cordially invited to join those who will be gathering on Wednesday the 2nd July between

C.W.L. are holding a coffee morning on Monday June 30th
