This week’s announcements
HAPPY MOTHERS DAY: as we celebrate all the mothers in our parish, praying for special blessings upon them.
DEANERY STATION MASSES 2026: This week’s deanery station mass will be on Tuesday 10th March, taking place at Tuesday 17th March at St Patrick’s Church, Oldham, starting at 7pm. The following week’s mass will be on Tuesday 24th March at Ss Aidan & Oswald, Royton.
GIFT AID: Recently the Parish Office has been made away that there exist cases of parishioners wanting to kindly donate under Gift Aid donating, but not being eligible for it. Whilst Gift Aid is a great tool for the parish to claim an additional 25p for every £1 donated, those who donate must be current UK taxpayers. If you no longer pay UK Income Tax or Capital Gains Tax, your circumstances have changed and you are unsure if you still qualify for Gift Aid, a family member who previously donated through Gift Aid has sadly passed away, or you have moved address or changed your name, please get in touch urgently with the Parish Office. Likewise, if you are aware that any point you have donated through Gift Aid in the past without being eligible, please also get in touch with the Parish Office. If you are not eligible please also do not collect any new boxes or make any payments through standing orders, and if you wish to continue donating to the parish, please do so through the regular collections.
SVP COMMUNITY CAFE: The SVP will be opening the community cafe in the Town House on Tuesday 17th March, the feast day of St Patrick after 10am mass. Everyone is welcome to join us in this celebration with a nice cup of tea and a slice of cake or two.
This Lent, Will You Make a Change to Change a Life? Whether you're making a change to your diet, fasting, amending your behaviour or adapting your thoughts and focus...as you pray, fast and give this Lent, the change you're making could also help change lives in your parish. By remembering our diocesan charity, Caritas Salford, during Lent, your actions, donations and prayers will make a real difference to the lives of the local people experiencing homelessness, poverty and discrimination in Greater Manchester and Lancashire. Visit www.caritassalford.org.uk/Lent now for ways you can help.
