Music
Looking to the future, is there anyone
who has keyboard (piano/organ) skills
would be interested in helping with music
in the liturgy especially on Sundays?
Perhaps also we could think about
establishing a choir so that we could
begin singing other parts of the Mass,
such as the Responsorial Psalm, Gloria,
and plan some extra music for Holy Week

From Paul to the Benedictines
Greetings to you all and many, many thanks for your continued prayers and for
greetings cards I have received. Some of you discovered that I celebrated a birthday
last Saturday! Thank you for the cards and good wishes. It turned out to be a very
quiet day - as befits my increasing years!! However, on Tuesday I did go into
Birmingham to paint the town! Actually, I went for a tour around the BBC Centre I
was in the Midlands Today studio and in the studio where "The Archers" is
recorded. We even performed a very short play which was recorded. My
performance was such that I've decided to hold on to my day job! Then after a
short walk against high winds along the Birmingham Canal to Brindley Place (&
Symphony Hall), I enjoyed a lovely meal nearby, before returning somewhat
exhausted to St Joseph's. I was reminded that I celebrated my birthday last year
here at St Joseph's - I hope that this is not becoming a tradition!
By the way, I share my date of birth with Blessed John Henry Newman, as well as
having lived for a number of years at Newman's first Catholic home, to which he
gave the name Maryvale!
I think that I'll be away for one more weekend after this - so I'm looking forward to
being back with you soon. I am very grateful to Fr Raphael for all that he has done
while I've been away.
You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
Fr Paul.
Unused Rosaries: Do you have unused rosaries tucked away in the
cupboard or drawer, we are collecting rosaries to send out to various
missions around the world, this appeal is being made by The Catenians
who have so far sent out 135,000 rosaries. It would be good if we could
give this initiative our support, spare rosaries can be given to Fr. Paul or
Brian Ingram.
