SAINT WILFRID’S DAY This Sunday is St Wilfrid’s Day. We are delighted to welcome back Bishop Robert Byrne of the Oratory to celebrate at the 11am Mass. There will be a reception in the Rectory after the 11am Mass so do please try to come over. NEW WEEKDAY MASSES AND DEVOTIONS Please note that the additional weekday Masses have now begun. There is now a 12.10pm Mass every weekday and Saturday, preceded by Exposition and Confession and followed by the Rosary. There is now no Exposition on Thursday morning but instead there is an hour of Exposition after Mass on Thursday and during confessions on Saturday morning. We will see if we need a rota for Exposition but so far people seem to be staying on of their own accord! MASS TIME CONSULTATION Thank you very much for the many responses. Next week Fr Richard will circulate the proposal he is submitting to Bishop Terence. He will also leave a file in the porch with the responses he received (but with names and addresses removed) so that people can read them for themselves. Please let Fr Richard know if you object to your response being made available in that way. LEGION OF MARY We had a successful meeting last Tuesday and decided to re-found the St Wilfrid’s Praesidium of the Legion of Mary. The first meeting of the Praesidium of Our Lady Queen of Martyrs will meet at 2pm on Tuesday, 21st October in the Upper Room and at the same time each week after that. YORK AQUINAS READING GROUP The Aquinas Reading Group is meeting on Friday 17th October at 7.30pm at the Upper Room. This month, Fr. Richard Conrad OP will introduce us to Thomas Aquinas’s Treatise on Man. Sometimes St Thomas can feel rather difficult. Fr Richard makes him engaging, accessible, and even entertaining, so an evening not to be missed. SPUC COFFEE MORNING On Saturday 25th October York SPUC is holding a Coffee and Cake morning in the Upper Room from 10am - 12.30pm. The date has been chosen to mark the 47th Anniversary of Royal Assent being given to the Abortion Act. Perhaps you could help by baking a cake or giving an hour of your time to help with serving and washing up. If you can do either of these things, please get in touch with Christine Kelly by email, [email protected] or text 07855994752. Finally please pray for the success of this event and the work done by SPUC to defend human life from conception to natural death. Thank you.
