Parish News: The Holy Family and week before Epiphany

On this Sunday within the Octave of Christmas, we meditate on the example of love shown to us by the Holy Family of Mary, Jesus and Joseph. They faced the unexpected, persecution and the unknown with faith, hope and love; we ask that we may be able to do the same.  

You can donate using card online to support St Benet’s: every penny counts! You can also donate by cash or card in person, by texting BENET followed by your donation amount to 70450 to give that amount. Or why not set up a regular standing order with your bank?

You can see the readings for this coming Sunday here.

Please pray for:
The sick and those in need
Brenda, Conor, Chinye, Victor, Mercy, Olga, John, Cordelia, Lolita, Ben, Evelyn and Sidoni.
The Faithful departed
The recently departed, all who have worshipped in and served at Saint Benet’s and those whose year’s mind falls about this time, amongst them Violet Farrer (2nd).
