Announcement from Fr Mansel
It was announced at Mass on the weekend of 27th/28th July that I will be taking a break from my parish ministry. I have now begun that break.
Thank you for your continuing prayers and support which mean so much to me. They will, I am sure with the help of God's grace, allow me to return to you very soon. Thank you to my brother priests who will be supplying at the weekends I am away. I know you will make them all very welcome. I will pray for you all in my daily prayers and Mass.
God bless you all, and thank you.
Fr Mansel.

The Year of Jubilee 2025
The Holy Father has decided that 2025 will be a year of Jubilee, something which happens every 25 years. The theme is “Pilgrims of Hope”, and it will be a year of hope for a world suffering the impacts of war, the ongoing effects of COVID-19 pandemic, and a climate crisis. This year, 2024, is a preparatory year of prayer for the Jubilee Year, and the Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales have produced resources for this preparatory year of prayer, focusing on the Our Father, as well as resources about Jubilee in the Catholic Church. For use by parishes, priests, religious, laypeople, and more, these resources will help guide you as you ready yourself for this most vital year in the Church’s life.​​​
