Friday is Fr Robert’s day off ________________________________ My dear friends, Looking back on the churches year for both parishes we have a lot to give thanks for. Our buildings are open and offer people a sacred space to sit and to pray. Our Sunday numbers show steady signs of growth and our many social activities reveal an eagerness to engage with people and to widen the churches presence in the town. The only thing that is holding us back is our financial situation. We need more money to keep the show on the road. So I would ask that each one of you consider increasing your weekly contribution by £3.00 [£12.00 per month] If we all did this it would make a terrific difference to our income. PLEASE can I ask you to consider this. Bank details are at the bottom of this sheet. Your friend and priest, Fr. Robert. ______________________________________ Today the Church keeps the feast of Corpus Christi – giving thanks to God for His great gift of the Eucharist. ____________________________ WORSHIP AND STUDY Exploring the FaithMonday 8th June 7pm, DR Room“A Just War”Followed by coffee and biscuits_____________________________ “Prayer Matters” Our prayer group will next meet at 2pm on Monday 8th June 2026 at 36, Winston Drive, Bexhill.
