St John Paul II Transparent for dark background 100

Our First Holy Communion and Junior Reception Programmes launch at all Masses this weekend (20th/21st September). The children will be formally "presented" to the people of the parish - let us keep them all, and their families, in our prayers as they embark upon this wonderful journey!

Ideally, please let your child sit with the group at the front left of the church, and it is helpful if you, yourself, are on the front right so that they know where you are. "Passports" will be given out to all the children to record their attendance at Mass, and these should then be brought each week to be signed by a catechist. Please mark on the front cover if you have given permission for your child to appear on livestreams or not - we will have this on our records from your application, but if it's on the passport as well, it's an extra protection against mistakes being made. The passports will be signed at the end of the Mass - please bear with us and wait in your place until this is completed and your child returns to join you. Thank you for your support!
