Parish News: Fourth Sunday and Week of Easter

April 28, 2023 by Guy Willis

 

In our urban existence, Jesus the Good Shepherd might seem like an irrelevant image. But in an age of disconnection and isolation, nothing could be more needed: the knowledge that it is God who cares and loves each of us, personally and individually in Jesus Christ his Son. 

You can find the scriptures for this week here.

Eastertide Fête this Saturday 29th April from 2pm to 4pm. Bring and buy, cakes and refreshments, with all proceeds to church funds.

Please pray for:
The sick and those in need
We are renewing the parish prayer list; please add names to the sheet at the back of church or email Father Guy.

The Faithful departed
All who have worshipped in and served at Saint Benet’s and those whose year’s mind falls this week.

The cover art this week is The Good Shepherd, a 1926 wood engraving by Eric Gill held in the Tate.

Lourdes Pilgrimage from 7th – 11th August this year. The cost, including flights and full board at the Hotel Eliseo is £790. For young people aged 12-18 it is only £100! Book at https://www.tangney-tours.com/pilgrimages/lourdes/society-of-mary or ask Fr Guy for a paper form.
