ARCHDIOCESE OF BIRMINGHAM VISION
Our Vision is to be a Catholic Diocese which is faithful to the mission entrusted to us by Jesus Christ, full of missionary disciples who work together co responsibly in vibrant communities of faith, joyful in their service of God and neighbour.
THIS SUNDAY - SOLEMNITY OF PENTECOST
Our celebration of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the Church is kept next Sunday. We are reminded that Whitsunday is often seen as the Church’s birthday and thus encourages us to rejoice in the dynamism and courage given to the earliest Christian community. The season of Eastertide comes to its conclusion on this day.
Ordinary Time resumes with Week Seven and Psalter week 3 on Monday.
At all Masses the Finance Committee will be giving an update and appeal.
PARISH PENTECOST PARTY
Join in after the 10.30am Mass in the Parish Centre on Sunday 19 May.
There will be refreshments, activities for children and a chance to meet together.
NEXT SUNDAY
On this Sunday we shall celebrate the SOLEMNITY OF THE HOLY TRINITY. We believe that God has revealed Himself as Father/Creator, Son/Redeemer and Holy Spirit/ Sanctifier – three persons and yet one God.
The Mass draws us into the depth of the love at the heart of the Godhead.
FOR YOUR PRAYERS
Children at Crackley Hall School will celebrate First Holy Communion on 24 May.
Children at St Augustine’s School and from the Parish Group will celebrate First Holy Communion on 15 June

WALKING TOGETHER - UNFOLDING GOD‘S PLAN in our Parish
Following Archbishop Bernard’s Pastoral Letter, Fr Kevin invites us all to reflect on how we can continue to work together build a vibrant community of faith, joyful in our service of God and neighbour. All are welcome to share in this important process.
Over the past year we have met to discuss and put into place plans to bring to life the Diocesan Vision Statement and how we continue to move forward as a parish - deepening our faith (formation and spiritual growth), sharing our faith (evangelisation), celebrating our faith (worship and liturgy) and witnessing our faith (social action) - click here for a summary.
