HCPT (Hosanna House and Children’s Pilgrimage Trust) is the charity that I go to Lourdes with, taking children with disabilities. There are two annual trips, one at Easter and one in the summer. In our region (Lancaster diocese) we are struggling to build groups and if anyone is interested in finding out more about it, and helping to create a group, do get in touch. Fr. Hugh

LOURDES PETITIONS: Zoe is going to Lourdes in 10 days with the diocese and there is a box for petitions on Our Lady’s altar which she is happy to take.

PENTECOST: We are going to celebrate Pentecost this weekend as a Creation Day using the theme ‘Send forth your spirit and renew the face of the earth’. After the 10am Mass we are having a small picnic on the grass opposite the church (or parish centre depending on the weather). Please join us if you can.

LIVE SIMPLY GROUP: A base group has now met and we are hoping to involve as many of the parish as we can in this. We are not going to have a parish meeting on Sat 22nd June as it is the Kendal Unity Festival but we will at some later date. This Sunday there is a questionnaire in the bulletin about how we are already ‘Living Simply’. It would be a great help if you could fill this in so we can get a feel for how much we are already doing in the parish with regard to climate change. Thank you.
