*** T h i s W e e k *** Apostleship of the Sea Today is Sea Sunday, when the Church remembers all those who live and work at sea. Many people have never stopped to consider how important seafarers are to our standard of living. Without them we would not have most of the items we use in our everyday lives. Many of these seafarers do not have the quality of life on board that every human has the right to. Apostleship of the Sea is the official maritime welfare agency of the Catholic Church in Great Britain & offers pastoral, practical support & care to seafarers. It is dependent on voluntary donations - please give generously to this week’s collection. See information about AoS at rear of Church
