Gifted, Bereavement Group

The SVP’s shop, Gifted, will be open this weekend. We still have a few things for Easter and have started stocking First Holy Communion cards and gifts, as well as lots of generic gifts and cards. Do let us know if you are looking for something specific and we will try and get it for you.

The SVP Bereavement Care group will meet on Wednesday, April 6. Why not pop in to the hall after 10am mass and meet Bridget and the team over a cup of tea or coffee.

Social Success

What a great time we had at the St Patrick’s Day Bingo evening on Saturday! There are lots people to thank: from the people who helped organise, to those who helped on the night, to the group who set up and tidied at the end. And, of course, thanks to all of you who came and joined in. I think I speak for all when i say what a great night it was. It was lovely to see people getting out and socialising again.

Happy St Patrick's Day

Happy St Patrick’s Day! I hope you had a great one and are able to join our St Patrick’s bingo evening on Saturday, March 19. We at the SVP are excited to host the first social evening of the parish since we locked down due to Covid. If you do not manage to join us this time, not to worry, we will have more events later in the year.

Funds raised from the bingo evening will help to fund activities undertaken by the SVP – the food bank, our bereavement care group, support for the homeless and visiting residents of care homes, refugees, the sick, housebound and lonely.

St Patrick's Day Bingo Evening

Planning is well underway for the SVP’s St Patrick’s Day Bingo Evening, to be held in the church hall on Saturday, March 19. We will open the doors at 6.15 pm, with eyes down at 7 pm.

Bingo will be the centre of attention, but we will have light snacks on the table, an SVP raffle with some great prizes, and the bar will be open with beer, wine, soft drinks and, of course, Guinness and Irish coffee. While this will raise some funds for the SVP, the main aim is to welcome everyone back to socialising in the parish.
