Support For Our Parish
We seldom get letters of praise about Parish life. But we did receive one
recently from John Kentleton who lives in Shrewsbury and attends our Church
at 10am on Sundays when he visits family here. He referred to the Diocesan
Green Paper, which was discussed last weekend at an open Parish meeting.
Would
all those who are involved with the liturgy at 10am mass and especially those
helping with teaching of the Word for God’s little ones, please take a bow!
Part of the letter reads:
‘May
I say that whatever the Green Paper might suggest and whatever your response,
I hope you won’t be deflected from the truly impressive example you already
afford of a Parish community. It is really encouraging to note the way that
people of different ages, race and sex are included in your celebration of
the Mass, the vibrancy of the service and the welcoming Christian atmosphere
that pervades the congregation. I congratulate you in creating and sustaining
such a lively, inclusive and inspiring Parish.’
Mr. Kentleton concludes by saying that a copy of the letter will be making its way to the Cardinal’s office.
