Parish Groups
There are many groups and associations in our parish. Some of these relate to the liturgical life of the community, while others are concerned with devotions and the pastoral outreach of the parish. All groups would warmly welcome new members.
Liturgy Group
Liturgy, with its recurring rhythms and movements, is to draw us into a deeper experience of God.
Co-ordinator: Karen Morris
The responsibilities of a Parish Liturgy Group include: preparation, coordination, formation and evaluation.
The Liturgy Group met for the first time on Saturday 16th November to plan our worship and celebrations, with a particular focus on Advent and Christmas. One of the immediate actions agreed was to reinstate the Offertory Procession at our weekend Masses. Each weekend members of the congregation will be invited to carry the gifts.
All are welcome to join the group to share thoughts and ideas. The next meeting will be held on 22nd January at 7pm in the Chapel House.
