Dear Parishioners of St Joseph's & St Charles,

The statue will be processed in at the 12.30pm Mass on Friday 24 April, and there will be the Rosary and other devotions in the afternoon as well as a Fatima film and talk in Houlden Hall, followed by the 5.30pm Mass. The film will also be shown on the morning of Saturday 25 April, with Mass at 12.30pm and devotions in the afternoon, and the visit will conclude with a Holy Hour and Benediction from 3.30-4.30pm. All are very welcome to come along. On Saturday 6 June the relic of Our Lady of Guadalupe is visiting the Mother of God Church, Abbeydale Road. The day begins at 10 am with Holy Mass celebrated by Bishop Ralph Heskett. This Relic has been declared as an Authorised Relic that extends the graces of evangelisation, conversion and truth to those who receive it. The perfect and ever Virgin, Holy Mary's words to St Juan Diego : "I not here, I, who am your Mother?" Here is this weekend's newsletter, and intercessions. Our Lady of Walsingham, pray for us. St Joseph, pray for us. St Charles Borromeo, pray for us. With my prayers, Mgr. Mark McManus Parish Priest
