A special thank you to all those who helped to make our Christmas liturgies so special: to the choir and music group for leading our singing, for those who have produced such beautiful flower arrangements in church; for our stewards, servers and ministers and to all who have helped in any way. Thank you too for the many cards and kind gifts that I have received. Let’s pray that 2022 will be year when finally some normality may return to our parish.
