Deanery Novena of the Holy Spirit.

Deanery Novena of the Holy Spirit. continues every night at 7pm until the eve of Pentecost Sunday.  It is being webcast from St Mary’s Church. Each  evening will have its own theme and will follow a pattern; each evening a reflection on the daily theme or reading given by a different priest of the deanery and parishioners are sharing the prayers and readings. These are being recorded at home and edited into the webcast.

Join with parishioners of all the deanery parishes at 7pm each evening. Access the webcast through St Mary’s parish website: www.stmaryshalifax.com and follow the Novena Link to their YouTube channel.

MAY THE MONTH OF MARY

May the month of Mary. May, together with October, are traditionally regarded as months dedicated to Our Lady and it is customary to pray the Rosary. Pope Francis has written a letter “to encourage everyone to rediscover the beauty of praying the Rosary at home in the month of May”. He writes: “it is traditional in this month to pray the Rosary at home within the family” and that the restrictions of the pandemic have made us appreciate all the more this family aspect.

CATHOLIC CARE COMMUNITY RESPONSE SERVICE

Catholic Care Community Response Service

In response to the impact of COVID-19 (Coronavirus) Catholic Care have launched a Community Response Service to support those in our Catholic communities who are sick, self-isolating, have been adversely financially impacted or are finding it difficult to cope.

The service will be available Monday – Friday, 8-6pm
A team of Catholic Care workers (we may expand later to incorporate volunteers) will be available to support parishioners and families in a number of ways:

• A telephone support service. This service will provide a listening ear and a friendly voice for those experiencing isolation in their community.
• A pick up and drop off groceries and pharmacy service.
• A dog walking service

• A hamper delivery service for those experiencing financial hardship.
Please contact us on 07739975001 or 7739975008 or 07739975009 or email janet.kent@catholic-care.org.uk or Jessica.price@catholic-care.org.uk if you would like to access this service or you would like to refer a person in your Parish or school community.

Our beautiful Church has been looked after throughout Lent/Easter and will be always even though we are not allowed to visit at this time.

Fr Michael blessed palms at the Mass he celebrated on Palm Sunday which will be made available later in the year.
