A REFLECTION: In today’s Gospel, Jesus heals ten men, yet only one returns to thank Him. This story reminds us not only of the power of God’s healing, but also of the importance of gratitude in our daily lives. As we go about our week, let us remember to serve, help, and give generously, and never forget to say “thank you” to both to God and to those around us.

ADORATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT: Saturdays from 11.30am to 12 Noon.

CLIMBING TO THE STRATOSPHERE FOR EAST CHESHIRE HOSPICE: We successfully ascended 10,600m (that’s more than Ben Nevis on top of Everest) with a great effort from all 13 people who walked or cycled.  So far we have raised over £1,100 for East Cheshire Hospice – thank-you to everyone who supported us, with special thanks to those at the Parish Dinner.  If you would still like to contribute you can do so at https://www.justgiving.com/page/stratosphere.

CHILDREN’S FAIR: We are delighted to share that last Sunday’s Children’s Fair was a wonderful success! In just one hour, we raised £275. While the fair was first and foremost about bringing our community together, we are also deeply grateful for the generous donations received. The proceeds will be donated to the SVP. A heartfelt thank you goes to all the volunteers; including the Catenians, SVP members, St Bede’s Parish and St Vincent’s Parish, who gave their time on the day; to those who kindly donated raffle prizes; and to everyone who came along to support the fair. Your generosity and presence made this event possible!

FAITH LIKE A MUSTARD SEED A Reflection by Christel Casse, Lay Pastoral Assistant .Jesus tells us that even faith the size of a mustard seed can do great things. What matters is not how much faith we think we have, but how we trust and live it out in humble service. Small acts of faith, offered in love, allow God’s grace to grow.

CAFOD FAMILY FAST DAY: Envelopes will be collected after Mass.

CAMBODIA VISIT: If you would like to join us in February, please email me or speak to me after Mass. The total cost is in the region of £1500.
