Dear Friends,
A memorable weekend indeed. A great joy to have family and friends as well as parishioners for the jubilee celebrations. I am deeply grateful for all who worked so hard to make it a special time for the parish.
The re-decorating of the Sacred Heart church begins on Monday, 24th July and will continue for at least three weeks. During this time the church will not be used for services. Sunday Mass will take place in the parish hall and there will be no weekday Masses in the church. The weekday Mass at Hoveton (Wednesday) and Aylsham (Friday) will continue as usual. Saturday Confessions will be in the presbytery from 12 to 12.30 and at other times by appointment.
God bless
Father James
For weekday Masses, each week there is a Mass at St Joseph’s Sheringham on:
Mondays at 9.00 am
Tuesdays at 7.00 pm
Saturdays at 9.00 am
Looking ahead; a date for the diary. Our Annual Mass in the Garden of Remembrance at the Sacred Heart takes place on Tuesday 22nd August at 6.00pm. Should it be a wet evening the Mass will be celebrated in the church.
