THE CONTINUING SCANDAL OF THE VATICAN’S CHINA POLICY by George Weigel


First anniversary of Mrs Tattersall’s death – Monday, 18th November: Fr Tattersall intends to celebrate a Solemn Requiem for the repose of the soul of his mother, at 7.30 pm this Monday, 18th November, the first anniversary of her death. Parishioners are most welcome to attend. Fr Tattersall continues to be grateful for the many prayers offered for his mother in her last illness, and then for her eternal repose. Providentially, Fr Tattersall has reached the next stage in his recovery from surgery just in time to be able to offer Solemn Mass – his first since August.

Fortes in Fide: In December, Fortes in Fide is holding two events for young adults. For men there will be a 4 day hiking trip in the Victorian Alps, which includes daily Mass. For ladies, there is a day retreat including Mass, prayer, Holy Hour, Conferences and activities. For more information, see the posters in the vestibule or visit the FB page : https://www.facebook.com/NewmanYoungAdults

Bible Study: Exodus. Bible Study with Father Murphy recommences in November, with sessions taking place on 3 Tuesday nights per month 6pm – 7:30pm in the school hall starting 12th November. We will study the book of Exodus, covering themes of liberation from sin, the prefiguring of Christ, the Church and the Sacraments. More details in the poster in the back of the church. Those wanting to attend and be on the mailing list, please contact Fr Murphy by email.
