Sea Sunday is Sunday 12th July Seafarers and fishers play a vital role in all of our lives, but they often work in difficult, hazardous conditions. The Church prays for all those who live and work at sea. Your support will make a big difference to seafarers and fishers in need. You can donate in church, there will be a second collection next Sunday, by visiting www.stellamaris.org.uk/donate, or by texting ‘SEA’ to 70460 to donate £5. This collection is vital to enable Stella Maris to continue its important work, so please give generously. Thank you.
Would you sell any excess vegetables at coffee after mass and the money raised go to the church? If you are interested see Stephen.
