Dear all,

Christmas Concert I'm delighted to be able to say that some of the strings and woodwind players from our Orchestra will be joining us for the occasion, and we thank them hugely for being prepared to do so. As soon as Bernard and I have agreed the scope of their involvement I will move on to completing the Christmas and New Year music lists.
Forthcoming Poly Masses Herewith the anticipated Music Lists for the 2 October, 6 November and 20 November (Christus Rex) and 4 December Masses.
Our October Mass will be said for the intention of St. Bartholomew's Polyphony Choir at Terry Folorunso's request. There will be a nod to Vaughan Williams for the 150th anniversary of his birth on 12 October 1872.
Forthcoming Plainchant Masses The anticipated Music Lists for the 16 October, 13 November (Remembrance) and 18 December Masses.
Forthcoming Hymn Choir Masses The next 11:30 Hymn Choir Masses are on 23 October and 25 November. All are welcome to come up and sing! There will be no Hymn Choir on Christmas Day.
Parish Annual General Meeting 2022 This will take place in the Hall from 19:30 on Wednesday 12 October. I have been advised that, ahead of the occasion, "We will also have a suggestions box at the back of the Church, so that parishioners can make suggestions, raise issues of concern or request information, please inform members of your group about this." I have now done so! Thrice!!
