FIRST HOLY COMMUNION 2017

If your child is in Year 3, and you wish your child to receive their First Holy
Communion in May 2017, you will need to enrol them on the First Holy Communion
programme. The First Holy Communion classes will begin in January 2017 and will
be held at St Andrews on Saturday mornings. The first enrolment date will be on
Wednesday, 12th October between 3.30pm and 5.00pm, the second date will be
Thursday, 20th October between 7.00pm and 8.00pm. They will both be held in the
Sacristy at Our Lady of Peace Church. Parents will need to complete an
enrolment form which will be available on the enrolment date. If your child was
Baptised in another Parish, you will need to bring with you a copy of the childs
Baptism certificate: if you cannot find it, you will need to contact the Parish where
your child was Baptised and obtain it before the enrolment meeting.

USED STAMPS collected for the Missions, boxes available in the Church porches.
RECRUITING! How would you like to join a group of very friendly individuals on Tuesday
evenings for a sing-along! The Our Lady of Peace choir is always looking for new members.
You do not have to worry that you cannot make every single practice and do not worry about
having top quality voices - all voices are welcome and no auditions necessary. We are a very
relaxed choir and each week as we rehearse, we bond and grow stronger and at the same time,
have a lot of fun. Come and see us on (alternative) Sundays at Our Lady of Peace after 9.45am
Mass if you would like to know more.
ADORATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT every Monday at Our Lady of Peace from
7.00pm to 8.00pm. All welcome to join in Contemplating the Face of Christ through prayer,
praise and stillness. There is also Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament at St Andrews every
Thursday from 8.30am 9.30am. All welcome.
