During the Liturgy of Good Friday there is a long series of Intercessions and this year an additional one was added:
'For the afflicted in time of pandemic.'
'Almighty and ever-living God only support of our human weakness, look with compassion upon the sorrowful condition of your children who suffer because of this pandemic; relieve the pain of the sick, give strength to those who care for them, welcome into your peace those who have died and, throughout this time of tribulation, grant that we may all find comfort in your merciful love. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.'
Thanks to Paul Hodgetts we have music for Easter. Here is a link to the website
The Annual Report of the Parish SVP Conference is available and I have attached a copy. Look out for the four amigos who did the sponsored walk for the refugee ladies at Fatima House in Birmingham last June raising over £1,600.
Please God may we all have a safe and blessed Eastertide.
