This Sunday is the 30th of the year. Jesus heals the blind beggar Bartimeaus, who calls out to God for mercy despite the crowd who try to stop him. ‘Your faith has saved you’ – so we ask for an increase in our faith, hope and charity. You can read the scriptures for this week here.
To help us get used to singing the responses at Mass again, Conor, our director of music will be holding a short practice after coffee this Sunday. All very welcome.
