All Saints, All Souls, and recent events


On the right and the left are some photos from our youth weekend that took place in Kent between Friday and Sunday. There were 11 of us and 18 young people form three other local churches. A great time was had by all.




Meanwhile, back at Church, of course, there were very special, if more solemn services, marking the death of Angie Ackland.
Thank you to all who attended the Requiem Mass on Friday night or Angie's Funeral on Saturday morning.
They were beautiful services, and in all over 500 people attended, a mark of the love in which she was held.
Father John is now taking a few days leave.

Coming up we have two special services, All Saints on Sunday morning at 10am and All Souls, a thanksgiving and commemoration of the faithful departed on Monday 3rd November at 8pm.
Please do come early to the All Souls, if you want to get a seat. It's a chance to remember loved ones and light a candle and take some rosemary in their memory.


For a service more obviously filled with joy, some of you may wish to come to Patrick and Lucia's wedding this Saturday (1st) or the Deanery Confirmation where Eto and George from our Church will be confirmed: Tuesday 4th, 8pm at St Barts.
