A warm welcome to any visitors who may be with us this weekend; we hope you have an enjoyable time in beautiful North Norfolk. You are welcome to stay for coffee after our weekend Masses and meet some of our parishioners.

Assisted Dying Bill Postcards. These cards are available at the back of the church. On 11th September 2015 a very important debate will be taking place in the House of Commons on a Private Members Bill to legalise assisted suicide. We are urged by Archbishop Peter Smith, Chairman to the Dept. of Christian Responsibility & Citizenship, to consider the message on the cards and make contact with our local MP. He suggests we also give these cards to colleagues and friends. We need to play our part and ACT NOW by making our views known. So please take some cards and use them to support what we believe to be right.
