Thirtieth Sunday of the Year
24th October 2010

Mission Sunday
Handing on the Faith to a new generation is the greatest privilege God gives to any of us. On this Mission Sunday we pay special tribute to those priests, nuns, brothers and lay people who have devoted their whole life to handing on that faith to people who may have never heard of Jesus. The Annual Collection for the Missions will be taken up on November 14th.
