Funeral
arrangements for Rev Peter Rudd
The Requiem Mass for the late Peter Rudd will be on Thursday 25th July, at
12:30pm, here at the Sacred Heart. This
requiem will be offered by the Vicar General of Leeds, Monsignor Paul Fisher.
Peter’s body
will be brought into Church on Wednesday evening 24th at 7pm with
reception Mass. For those who may not be able to join us for
the requiem on the 25th, this is an opportunity in giving thanks to
God for Peter’s life and work in Saddleworth, and here at Sacred Heart.
Refreshments will be
served in the parish centre after the Requiem Mass and the family have asked
that as many people stay, so that the family can thank you for your kindness to
them since Peter’s death.

They have 5 or 8 day trips. 17th September or 19th October.

It really is an amazing place and you won’t be disappointed.
Adoremus 2024
The 2024
National Eucharistic Congress - Adoremus 2024 - is set to take place on
Saturday 14 September 2024 at St Mary's College, Oscott.
Each diocese has been granted a small number of places to join in this
wonderful celebration but places are extremely limited.
Fr Richard Howard has kindly taken on the task of organising our diocesan visit
this year and finding key people to represent our diocese at the Congress, as
guided by Bishop John. One of the groups we are hoping will represent us this
year are catechists.
If you have any catechists in your parish who might be interested in attending,
please contact Fr Richard directly at richard.howard@dioceseofsalford.org.uk.
