Southern Cemetery Mass
The Diocese of Salford is delighted to announce the return of its Cemetery Mass at Southern Cemetery- the first since before the pandemic - providing a wonderful opportunity to come together in faith and remember our loved ones who have gone before us. Join us at 12 noon on Monday 25 August outside the Roman Catholic Chapel in the cemetery. Seating will not be provided, so please bring a chair if you require one. In the event of poor weather, Mass will be celebrated in St Ambrose Church.

Do you know anyone who might like to become a Catholic?

The Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA) will begin in September.  If you know anyone interested, will you let them know early, so they have time to think about joining us.

Crochet and knitting group.

Mary and the girls have decided to try a new day and time , to see if more people would like to join the group, that couldn't make it on Tuesdays 

Changes begin after Easter, 

on Wednesday 23rd April at 10am till 12pm

The group is going well, the girls are a lovely bunch and are enjoying learning to crochet and knit,  and of course natter, but they do need  some people more  experienced at these crafts

GOLD

Have you got any gold that you do not use? A lost earing, a broken bracelet?  Anything you are not using or has been sitting in a jewelry box unloved? We can collect this gold and weigh it in; this would be a great source of income for both of our parishes.
