St. Bartholomew's Polyphony Choir UPDATE FEBRUARY 2021

Today, 27 January 2021, the Choir is 18,759 days old!!

The long-expected New Lectionary has moved a step closer - look forward to the 1st Sunday of Advent 2022! 22 years in the making, much of the dreadful colloquial English that currently crops up from time to time in the Readings and Psalms is set to be removed. For many of us this will potentially bring a huge sigh of relief!!

It will come at a cost - we will need new Psalm books for our cantors and the parish will need three years worth of new Parish Mass Books for the congregation.

With love to you all, Tony x

St. Bart's Memories No. 41

St. Bart's, as was depicted on our Parish Newsletters for so many years. Throughout the time it appeared the artist was never, to my knowledge, acknowledged. It was beautifully drawn by Christine Clark, Gordon's mother.


Are you able to help steward at church?

The parish is looking for a few more people to assist with the Covid stewarding at church; see the parish Home page for more information.

Prayers, please

Please remember, and pray for, the safe and happy repose of the souls of:

Celine Doody, Suzanne's mother, who sadly passed away in Ireland after a long illness on 24/25 January; soprano Clare Purnell-Browne who passed away back in October; Jeanne Agius, a long-standing alto in the Choir's early years, who passed away on 2 January; Jan's sister Juliette Dawn Giscombe (known as Dawn) who passed away in December. May they all rest in eternal peace.

Please step up your prayers for John at the moment. As far as I am aware he is still waiting for things to progress with the Royal Marsden.

Please also continue to pray for Terry J., Daniel, Maria's recovery, Veronica's sister Monica, Ken's niece Beth, Mary & Frank Elliott and my Mum & Dad, Sheila and David.
