This weekend we shall have our annual second collection for the Mary's Meals campaign. There will be a retiring collection for Mary’s Meals at all Masses this weekend. You can also donate to Mary’s Meals 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 Mary’s Meals is a registered charity, serving a nutritious daily meal to some of the world's poorest children to attract them into the classroom where they can gain an education and a brighter future. We, as a parish, have supported the charity since December 2023. There are 71 million primary school-age children out of school around the world; they have to work or beg to survive. A nutritious daily meal served at school not only satisfies a child’s immediate hunger, but it encourages children to attend consistently, improves their ability to learn and gives them better opportunities through education. It costs just £19.15 to feed a child for a whole year. Please give what you can.

For various reasons, especially ill-health, in the last year the parish has lost a number of Readers at Mass. This means that the rotas for all three Sunday Masses and the Masses on weekdays are feeling the strain. If you are not already on the Rota for Readers at any of the Parish Masses, please consider volunteering to take up this role. If you are interested, please let Canon John know or email whitchurch@rcadc.org Support will be given to any volunteers taking on this critical role in the life of the Parish community.
