Reflection
I lived on the shady side of the road and watched my neighbours’ gardens across the way revelling in the sunshine. I felt I was poor and from door to door went in my hunger. The more they gave me from their careless abundance the more I became aware of my beggar’s bowl. ‘Til one morning I awoke from my sleep at the sudden opening of my door and you came and asked for alms. In despair I broke open the lid of my chest and was startled into finding my own wealth.
Rabindranath Tagore
Parish Camp
We are pleased to announce that this summer we are once again hosting a Parish Camp, specially designed for the young people of our parish and the Salesian Academy of St John Bosco. We start with daily Mass and reflection with exciting trips, competitions and games organised by our dedicated parish team. The sessions run from 25-28 July and 1-4 August.
