Our RCIA classes have started on Wednesday evenings and will continue throughout the year with great discussion and great reflection. Do please pray for Rebecca, Philomena and Stephen as they embark on their journey in faith and, God willing, their reception into the Catholic Church next Easter.

Our parish is now a collection point for the local food bank called the "Paignton Community Larder". There is a labelled collection box located in the church porch. Volunteers from our own parish will take the donations to the food bank as they accumulate. There is a list in the church porch of non-perishable goods that are most needed. Any donations will be gratefully received. Thank you for your generosity.

Come and join us as we celebrate the harvest season, and focus on sharing our food with people who do not have enough access to basic provisions. The celebration will include music, poems, praying and singing hymns giving thanks.

At the end of the 19th Century, Pope Leo XXIII asked the Church to celebrate a novena (nine days of prayer) every year between Ascension and Pentecost, for a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit, who brings us a new encounter with the Risen Christ. This year, the Pentecost Novena will be prayed in our church before each daily Mass, beginning on Friday, 31st May. Do come and join us!

Earlier this year we embarked on a new programme for First Holy Communion, called "You are Blessed!" A dynamic learning resource with animations, beautifully illustrated books and a safe forum where children (and parents!) can ask the big and meaningful questions of life - only Jesus has the answer!

'The Church exists to evangelise' - How do we go about this task given to us all by our Lord Jesus Christ himself? (Matthew 28:19). Come along to six consecutive meetings starting 28 February 2019 at 7pm in the Church Hall (large meeting room).

A new children's Bible Club starting on Wednesdays from 6 February 2019, 3.30 - 4.30pm in school. Run by Mrs Diana Smith and Mr Andrew Marlborough. Available to Year 3 children upwards. This fun group will learn and enjoy more about our Bible stories.

"It takes a big heart to shape young minds" - volunteers required to help form our new "kids' club" for 8-13 year olds.
