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.

Calling All Christmas Kitchen Elves!

By Webmaster • October 30, 2026
Can you bake a cake that would make Mary Berry proud? Whip up a jam that would make Paddington Bear smile? Or create chutneys so delicious that even Santa would come back for seconds? If so, we need YOU! We are looking for kind-hearted parishioners to donate homemade cakes, jams and chutneys for our Christmas Bazaar at St Teilo’s. Every donation, however big or small, will help make our bazaar a success. So, dust off your mixing bowls, warm up those ovens and get those preserving pans bubbling! If your culinary talents are more “stir and hope” than “Bake Off champion”, don't worry — shop-bought donations are welcome too! Every jar, every cake, and every contribution is greatly appreciated.  Please let us know if you can help. Together, we can make this Christmas Bazaar a truly delicious success! Please speak to the welcomers after any Mass
