CALENDAR 2007 - 2008

1st December Saturday 6.30 pm
Carol Service for the Eve of the First Sunday of Advent
Blessed be the Hour

Time - the great fifth dimension -
in time can we live and move,
we are not statues in an exhibition. When this moment has passed
you will never get it back!

This Carol Service for the eve of the First Sunday of Advent
is born out of the prayer of St Colette: Blessed be the hour.
Blessed be the first hour
when time was created,
blessed be the moment
when life came in to being,
Blessed be the Hour when Jesus Christ true God and true man was born -
and blessed be the hour
I began to live.....

26 December - 12 January 2008

Crib visitors welcome
If you are bringing a party please let us know.

2nd February Saturday 3.30 pm
Mass for the Feast of the Presentation and the Blessing of St Colette

As Holy Mother Colette’s feast falls on Ash Wednesday this year, we are including her blessing in the Mass of the Presentation of our Lord in the Temple

St Colette is the Patron of the unborn, of expectant mothers, of would-be parents and of your little sisters at Ty Mam Duw. Come and join us on this date for a very special Millennium Celebration, which will include the possibility for all, of an opportunity to be blessed with a relic of Holy Mother Colette.

The blessing especially includes expectant mothers and would-be parents who wish to pray for the grace of conception and sick and handicapped children. This very ancient tradition dates from a miracle performed through Mother Colette during her life; when she restored a stillborn child to life by wrapping it in her own veil.

But you don’t need to be a mother - or a baby - to come and celebrate this great saint - everyone is welcome!
