OVER 50’S IRISH LUNCHEON SOCIETY

Celebration of Confirmation

Many thanks to all who helped to ensure that last Wednesday’s celebration of Confirmation was a wonderful occasion:

to the Catechists who prepared the youngsters, to those who prepared the church, booklets, flowers, certificates etc, and to the musicians and singers who enhanced the liturgy on the night itself.

These services are very much appreciated.

FIRST SACRAMENTS

The celebration of First Reconciliation will take place on Saturday 9th March at St Bernard’s Church, 2.00pm beginning at 2.00pm

Preparation for First Holy Communion begins on Tuesday March 12th at 6.00pm at St. Malachy’s School!

Halifax Deanery Marriage Preparation Course

The Marriage preparation course will include three sessions and will take place on April 28th, May 5th and May 12th at St Mary’s Presbytery at 12.15 (just after the 11.00am Mass).

It is important that any engaged couple who intend to marry this year will need to attend all three sessions.

If you wish to take part please contact Deacon John Walsh on 07774 857016.

OFFERTORY ENVELOPES 2019-2020

NEW OFFERTORY ENVELOPES are now being prepared for the new financial year 2019-20. Could we please invite you to sign up to use the envelopes if you don’t already use them.

Non-Tax Payers – it is more important than ever before that your offering is received via the offertory envelopes to ensure that any donations you make are given to the church of your choice.

Alternatively if preferred you can set up a Standing Order.

We would also really like to encourage all tax-payers to sign Gift Aid Declaration forms. If you wish to do so please fill in your details on the list provided in the Hall entrance, fill in the gift aid form or see Fr Michael or Marina for more information.

Thank you for your kind support.

Fr Michael

“Smartie Challenge”

Following the huge success of other Parishes and St Mary’s School we are launching our own “Smartie Challenge” during Lent 2019.

From this Sunday tubes of smarties will be available after Sunday Mass to those wishing to participate. You may enjoy the smarties before filling up the tubes during Lent with the coins of your choice (5p, 10p, 20p or £1 coins). The tubes of coins should be returned to Church as soon as possible after Easter Saturday. All monies raised will go towards our Church Restoration Programme.

Thank you in advance for your kind support.

CHURCH HEATING

The Church has been inspected by a heating consultant who has given guidance about the what systems would not work well for St Columba’s and what would be the best way forward. This is being shared with the Diocesan property department and a summary is available at the back of the hall.

BREW & A CHAT – next date 11th March 10.30 am – 12.30 pm

ANGELS CORNER CAFE – NEXT OPEN 24th MARCH 12.00 noon to 2.30 PM

AED AWARENESS SESSION

Thanks to all who attended the AED (Automated External Defibrillator) Awareness Session for our newly installed defibrillator. It was a really informative session and well received by all.

Huge thanks to our sponsors the Danny Jones Defibrillator Fund, The Warley Trust, Clifby Works (Mohammed) and Trish Coyle. Thanks also to Neil Marsay from the Yorkshire Ambulance Service who provided the training session on behalf of Danny Jones DF.

Many thanks also to the Team at St Columba’s who provided fantastic refreshments/buffet after the event.
