Saturday a night to remember - it was a truly fantastic night and was enjoyed by everyone.
Thanks to all involved in the organisation, to Steven Barker for the great music, to all those who
donated raffle prizes, to those who turned up to make it a great evening and to all those who
stayed to help clear up, duly supervised by our caretaker John who does an excellent job. It was

DO YOU WANT TO READ THE BIBLE, BUT DONT KNOW HOW TO BEGIN? If you have
ever wanted to read the Bible, but did not know where or how to begin, then A Quick Journey
Through The Bible Parish Study is for you. In April this year we will start our third running of
this 8 week course. Reserve a place now on our presentation evening where you will be able to
preview the content and talk informally to some of our students who have completed the course.
For further information about this event please contact Bob Bryant on 01628-543650 or Mobile:
07979-820064. A Quick Journey Through The Bible makes reading the Bible not only easy, but
exciting. In this study, you will learn the major people, places, events and themes of the Bible
getting the big picture of salvation history. Perhaps for the first time in your life, you will
understand the overview of the Bible story. This then makes your Bible reading and even the
Sunday Mass readings come alive like never before.
