St. Charles Borromeo

We would like to welcome you, your children and your grandchildren on Sunday, 8th December. After 10.30 Mass, we will be showing an animated DVD of St Nicholas and there will be a Christmas reading corner. Teas and Coffees will also be served after both morning Masses. Why not capture the true spirit of Christmas at this special event.

This General Election presents us with an opportunity to elect an individual representative who reflects as closely as possible our beliefs. It allows us to revisit Catholic Social Teaching and to connect our voting to our Catholic faith. It can be a chance to proclaim the inherent dignity and value of every human being, made in the image and likeness of God, and to promote the common good. In recent times, politics has become divisive, principally, though not exclusively, as a result of the EU referendum. Vigorous debate has sometimes spilled over into personal attacks and even acts of violence which are never acceptable. Uncertain times ought to make us stop and reflect on the One who is Truth Himself. Turning to God in these difficult times is our only hope for true peace. During elections, a range of issues compete for our attention; we highlight some of them here so that we may reflect on them and raise them with parliamentary candidates.
