Sunday Reception : We seek volunteers
Dear Faithful,
The receptions after the Sunday Masses are very important for our community: a. Because many of you travel up to an hour or more, often with little children, to attend Mass and b.
because of the social contacts we all cherish. We wish to maintain this opportunity to meet, greet and to enjoy good food after Mass also in the future. However, at this time only four sets of volunteers are clearing up the hall after our Sunday refreshments. To help lighten the load, we need more generous members of our community to join the team. Please contact me if you think your able to help us at 07311-443323 or via email: .
Thank you very much for considering my request.
Canon Michael K. Wiener
