Dear Friends in Christ,

I wish you and all your loved one’s Season’s Greetings. This Advent we are preparing for the Birth of Our Saviour Jesus Christ into our lives once again this Christmas. This beautiful time of the year always evokes memories of the past. I want to invite everyone to share in the festivities of God’s presence among us! Please take time over the Christmas holidays to come to one of the Christmas Eve / Christmas Day Masses. Everyone is welcome; bring your extended family! May I take this opportunity of wishing you and all your loved ones, both near and far, a very Happy & Holy Christmas, and a healthy and prosperous New Year for 2019.

With the Love & Peace of Our Saviour Jesus Christ

Rev Canon John J Harvey
