Youth Club Leader: Paolina Perez Youth Club is active during the school terms. Make
it a weekly event!! - Sundays from 7.15 - 9.15. Entry
Fee £1 Please Note: Outdoor activities may change due to inclement weather. We have decided not to run the club during the second half of the summer term because we have found in previous years that attendance is low at this time. We feel that families probably have other plans for evenings during the summer months! However, we will resume in September once the schools are back.The activities each week are published each week in the church bulletin and on the "Diary" page of this site, and monthly in the parish monthly news. The following events are typical examples, showing the range of activities.
We would like to thank you
all for your support. The youth club has been going for a few
years now and we could not have achieved this without you. Please
remember that if you have any suggestions for activities for the
club, you just have to tell us. There is URGENT NEED for volunteers to help out with youth club activities. If you feel you can devote a Sunday evening to demonstrate a skill whether it be guitar playing or cookie making to the members, please contact Paolina by email. Subs are £1. However, if
you help out, you'll get a voucher to give you either discounted
or free entry the following week. Please note some of the activities
may be changed if the weather is inclement. For those you have completed the Confirmation course and would like to keep in touch with each other and the church. Largely organised by the group themselves, but contact Sister Ewa for information. At the 9.15 Mass (family Mass), about 50- 60 children from the ages 2½ to 10 are given their own liturgy of the word, when they do activities related to the readings of the day. They leave the church after the first hymn, and are taken by Catechists (volunteers who "teach" the children) into St. Joan's Centre where they are divided into groups according to age. They return in procession during the offertory. They gather on the sanctuary steps, where one or two children read a short prayer about the theme of the day, before returning to their families. The last hymn of the Mass is usually accompanied by as many children as possible on tambourines, shakers etc, all well conducted at the front. If you would like to help in any way with children's liturgy please e-mail Frances Thompson or Nicola Kitney.. |
