CAFOD Harvest Family Fast Day

By Webmaster • October 3, 2025
Last Friday was CAFOD Harvest Family Fast Day. There will be a retiring collection at all Masses this weekend for CAFOD. CAFOD is part of Caritas, the global Catholic aid network that brings love, hope and practical help to our neighbours experiencing poverty. More than ever in this Jubilee year, we can join together with this worldwide Church network and offer our support and prayers where they are needed most. As we look at the world around us, it can be easy to doubt that we can make any difference, but today’s Gospel reassures us. Jesus tells the apostles that with just the smallest amount of faith, they could uproot a tree and move it into the sea. Let us place our faith in the Lord, then, and trust that with God’s help, we can work together with our neighbours towards a better world. A basket will be at the back of the Church for you to donate to CAFOD. You can also donate to CAFOD using a debit or credit card at the Electronic Donation Station at the back of St. Teilo’s or online at https://donate.mydona.com/st-teilo-our-lady-of-lourdes

The carpet comes with a 10 year guarantee and has been used in schools and other heavy-duty high traffic environments for over 40 years.  Many thanks to the parishioners who have noted the various breaks and wears in the current surface, it has taken a while to get Archdiocesan approval for the work to take place, but hopefully by Sunday, September 14th everyone will see the difference. Naturally, these things do not come cheap with the lowest tender being for £21,000. It seems like a good time to think of ways to fund this expenditure please let the Parish Finance Committee know if you have any suggestions for fund raising.

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.

Reaching Out Collection – Many thanks

By Webmaster • August 8, 2025
The donations for the Reaching Out project made via the recent collection and the e-donation machine amounted to £934.27, an excellent contribution showing the on-going support of the Parish Community for this vital work of providing for those who are disadvantaged and in need of the very basic things of life. Mary Chichester’s Local Vocal Choir concert raised the great sum of £1,020 for the cause. Very many thanks to all those who donated and/or came to the concert. It is equally important to thank the regular donors who, through standing orders and bank transfers, donate £724 per month to the project. - The Reaching Out Steering Committee

Reaching Out Project Second Collection – This Weekend

By Webmaster • July 25, 2025
The work of the Reaching Out Project would not be possible without the continued prayers, support and incredible generosity of the people of St. Teilo's with Our Lady of Lourdes. It would be good to be able to report that the level of need is reducing, sadly this is not the case and people are continuing to struggle to provide adequate food for their families. To ensure that this vital work continues, there will be a retiring collection at all Masses this weekend. You can also donate using a debit or credit card at the Electronic Donation Station at the back of St. Teilo’s or online at https://donate.mydona.com/stteilo-our-lady-of-lourdes . The Reaching Out Project enables us as a parish, through your help, to respond to the call from the late Pope Francis, to address poverty and inequality in our community.
