Parish News

A warm welcome to everyone. Tea and coffee are served after the 10.00am Mass on Sundays and the 09.30 Mass on Wednesdays; all are invited to join us. Father Alex offers a warm welcome to anyone who is visiting the parish this week.

Clergy Thoughts: Today, the One Holy, Apostolic, and Catholic Church celebrate the feast of two pillars of the Church, saints Peter and Paul. Both were transformed by their encounter with the Lord and united in their witness to him. Peter, a fisherman, was chosen by Jesus as leader of the apostles and the ‘rock’ on which he would build his church. Paul a pharisee was chosen by the risen Christ to bring the gospel to the Gentiles. The stories of Peter’s confirmation as leader of Jesus disciples and Paul as leader of the Gentiles, shows us that the way Jesus works is through forgiveness and reconciliation. It also reminds us that the Church is not a community of perfect disciples but of forgiven sinners unworthy of the task confided to them by the Lord. May the prayers  and intercessions of saints Peter and Paul inspire us to be faithful and courageous in sharing the Gospel with others, always conscious that we carry this treasure ‘in earthen vessels. Amen! Fr Alex

June is the month to the devotion of the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

Volunteers needed urgently A reminder to please set aside some time after Mass this weekend Saturday 27th and Sunday 28th to join our discussions regarding volunteer roles in the parish.

Knitters Aware

Here at Stella Maris, we provide Chaplaincy care for all those who work at sea. We need some keen knitters to assist us in this mission, by knitting woolly hats which can then be given to the seafarers and fisherman we minister to. There is absolutely no preference in colour or style.  Please help us support these workers in their industry. Collection from your home address can be made or any postage fees covered. If you can assist, please let me know.  Many Thanks, Deacon Rick Jones, Port Chaplain to East Anglia,
