Deacon Anthony’s Ordination: There are still seats available on the coach to the ordination to the priesthood of Deacon Anthony (along with Deacons Peter Ho and Matthew Allen) on Saturday July 4th. The coach will leave St Walstan’s at 10.00am, allowing plenty of time to get there for the 11.30am ordination Mass. It will depart from the cathedral at 2.30pm. Please let Fr David know a.s.a.p. if you would like a seat on the coach.

Jubilee Information: The Diocese of East Anglia is celebrating its 50th anniversary with a year-long schedule of festivities. On Sunday, July 19th, St. Walstan’s will participate in the festivities with a special Mass, followed by the yearly parish barbecue and the creation of a St. Walstan’s booklet. We wish to honour and celebrate the cultural history of St. Walstan’s parishioners as part of these celebrations. We are a unique parish because of our diversity, and we would want to know which nations our families are from so that we can honour them in our booklet. Please fill out the form on the porch if you are comfortable sharing your cultural heritage. Thank you, Priscilla and Marcelle.
