RELICS OF ST TERESE I have booked a coach for the trip to Walsingham on

For reasons best known to himself, Tony Lazell is having a “back and chest wax”; to make matters worse, it’s in public! The bright side of this is that it is a sponsored event for charity, in aid of CANCER CAMPAIGN IN SUFFOLK and THE MENINGITIS TRUST. Tony has left a sponsor form on the notice-board at the back of the church and would love to have your sponsorship support. Please do give it! If you can bear the sight of all this, it’s taking place in SAXON UPHOLSTERY ( Window ), 166 Hamilton Rd on Saturday, September 12th at 10.00am.

KSC Reminder to Brothers we have our meeting at St. Felix on Thursday 10 7.30pm; also to attend Mass on the 8th, the Birthday of the BVM .
