Rites and Sacraments

Someone to Pray for?
Please tell your ‘Community Correspondent’, or ring the Newsletter Secretary, 265533.

HOSPITAL?
Are you, someone in your family,
or a Catholic friend, in hospital now, or going into hospital soon?
When you go into hospital, they ask you your religion. However, this and all the other details you give are private, and
no-one else will be told; not the chaplains, not Sister Veronica, not the priests who visit the hospital. If you want Communion, care, or just a visit from
the Church, you or your relatives have to inform Sister Veronica or one of the Priests or Sisters or the Parish Office that you are there.
Please let the Catholic Chaplain know,
Sister Veronica, 01633 858539 or via the
hospital chaplaincy office, 234263.
In a hospital emergency,
the Hospital switchboard can page the On-Duty Priest for you.

How do I Book a Mass Intention?
If you want someone to be remembered at Mass, please write down the person’s name, whether they are alive (for their intention) or have died (for the repose of their soul), the church in which you want Mass, and if there is a particular date on which you wish Mass to be said for them. This is usually written on an envelope, in which you can enclose a ‘stipend’ (originally the wherewithal for the priest to live that day, though now more of a ‘tip’ for him). All of this should then be given to one of the priests, for entry into the list of Mass requests, to be said on the specified date, or when next there is the opportunity.

DEVELOPING OUR GIFTS –
VOLUNTEERING OUR TALENTS

As announced at the Parish All Saints Celebration, the Pope has announced a Year of Faith to start on October 11th 2012, a month and a day before our November 12th anniversary the Catholic Presence in Newport. Marking the 50th anniversary of the 2nd Vatican Council, this will strengthen and deepen our celebrations, asking us to make it a year of sharing Faith, studying Scripture, and re-visit the documents of the Council. As a Parish, and as individual communities, we are challenged to work together and prepare our response and involvement in this anniversary and year of Faith, a call to give value to the continued Catholic presence in our city.

Starting Thursday 6th Ocober at 5pm there will be
a Monthly Holy Hour for the Parish:
Adoration, prayer, and worship,
in SaintMichael’s Church: All are invited.

HOW WE SEE THE DEVELOPMENT
OF ALL SAINTS
PARISH

Click here to read the
statement issued on
behalf of ASPCC.

I Needed the quiet
A meditation found in May Brunnock’s houseafter her death.

I needed the quiet
so he drew me aside,
into the shadows
where we could confide,
away from the bustle
where all the day long,
I hurried and worried
when active and strong.

I needed the quiet
though at first I rebelled,
But gently, so gently,
my cross he upheld,
and whispered so sweetly
of spiritual things.
Though weakened in body,
my spirit took wings.
To heights never dreamed of.
At end of the day
He loved me so greatly
he drew me away.

I needed the quiet,
no prison my bed,
but a beautiful valley
of blessings instead.
A place to grown richer,
in Jesus to hide.
I needed the quiet
so he drew me aside.
