If any of the above applies to you, you are most welcome to join the Parish Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) programme which will run in the Parish Hall at St. Teilo’s on Wednesday evenings at 6pm beginning on Wednesday, October 15th . Please come along and discover more – attendance does not commit you to completing the programme but is designed to allow you to reflect on God’s call for you.

Safeguarding Audit – Have Your Say The Archdiocese of Cardiff–Menevia will soon be taking part in a safeguarding audit carried out by the Catholic Safeguarding Standards Agency (CSSA). This is part of the ongoing work to make sure that Archdiocesan safeguarding practices are the best they can be. The CSSA would like to hear directly from anyone who has experience of our safeguarding service — whether positive or negative. Feedback will help the team to listen, learn, and continue improving the way they care for and protect everyone in parish communities. If you would like to share your views confidentially, please use this link: https://forms.office.com/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=SSQzRY2fT0OpJmB_Xy63KKhlOTKZ5_hBrOC7BYgjzI9UMDhISEdITVI2UEY2TTBHTUJITlpRTlVGMC4u Thank you for helping us build a Church that is safe, welcoming, and caring for all.

This weekend is World Mission Sunday. On this day the Holy Father calls us all to be Missionaries of Hope. Mission is the responsibility of the whole Church, and this global celebration of World Mission Sunday is a reminder that we are one family in Christ. This special day is our chance to be part of the love and solidarity to our brothers and sisters overseas. In offering our prayers, we join with missionaries everywhere, in communion and compassion to support them in spreading the Good News, and by giving a donation, we respond to Christ’s call to share our faith in Jesus so that all may experience God’s love. As we have recently held a Missionary Appeal for one of the Missionary societies in the parish, we will not have a second collection for this cause this weekend, but we can still pray along with the Holy Father for the work of the missions. You can watch the Holy Father’s message for today at: https://www.vaticannews.va/en/pope/news/2025-10/pope-leo-xiv-take-part-in-world-mission-sunday-videomessage.html If you would like to donate to the work of Missio you can do so via the Red Boxes or by clicking here: https://missio.org.uk/donate/

An Act of Spiritual Communion


My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.

I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul.

Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally,

come at least spiritually into my heart.

I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You.

 Amen.
