Wednesday 9 April at 7pm here at St Wilfrid’s entitled ‘Nuclear Weapons – Immoral & Illegal’. Bruce is a well known political activist & former General Secretary of CND. This should prove to be a hugely challenging input, that dovetails with our Lent Course & a different perspective on Social Teaching.

Thank you for your excellent suggestions for the placement of our World War I memorial stone which include: the left wall of the Lady Chapel, on the front right side of the church, in the front garden on the right & under a Station of the Cross for example… where do you think? (Fr David)
Thank you from The Falcon Centre… who were completly overwhelmed by
the genorisity of St Wilfrid’s parishioners. One person commented the following "you will never know how much difference this will make to us as we have so little to live on". The same person was very excited about seeing tomato soup and being able to make some pasta meals. The warm clothing was particularly welcome at this time of year too. Staff also mentioned what a wonderful christmas the residents had because of the financial donation made by our parish. Some residents said it had been the best Christmas they had ever had. Thank you very much for the support you have given. (Madeleine, Lydia & Mandy) Nottingham Roman Catholic Diocese Trustees Company No. 7151646 Charity No. 1134449 Madeleine Bonser
