Donations via CAFOD to Gaza since the start of the conflict have been a vital lifeline. Right now, CAFOD's partner, Caritas Jerusalem, is delivering essential medical treatment to displaced people and providing medicines to treat chronic illnesses. CAFOD has helped 1,400 households with cash to buy supplies in the last month and is currently feeding 2,000 people with new stocks of flour and rice. Despite the restrictions on aid coming into Gaza, CAFOD's local partners are working tirelessly to help people. With your ongoing support, they will do all in their power to keep doing so. You can find out more about how you can make a difference in Gaza at https://cafod.org.uk/ . Thank you for backing CAFOD’s work through holding collections for our Family Fast Day appeals and for continuing to pray for peace in the Middle East. As Cardinal Pizzaballa, Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem, says, “Christ is not absent from Gaza. He is there - crucified in the wounded, buried under rubble, and yet present in every act of mercy, every candle in the darkness, every hand extended to the suffering.”

The Pilgrimage of Hope is a national walking pilgrimage for England and Wales with four main Ways converging at the Cathedral of St. Barnabas, Nottingham, on Saturday, September 13th, the eve of the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross. It is an initiative of the Hearts in Search of God project. The Ways start at the Catholic cathedrals in Cardiff, Leeds, Norwich and London and will bless our nations with a Sign of the Cross. The routes use established hiking routes and are off road as much as possible. A small group of 'perpetual pilgrims' will walk the full distance of each Way, with up to 20 day pilgrims joining for day stages. It is now possible for pilgrims to register for day stages. For details see this link https://www.pilgrimways.org.uk/become-a-pilgrim-for-a-day

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

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.

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.
