Mini-Pilgrimage for Priesthood Discernment
October 22, 2025
Parishioners at St Henry Morse RC Church have enjoyed a lively programme of social events in recent months, bringing people together in friendship while raising welcome funds for the parish and wider charities.
Most recently, a Macmillan Coffee Morning with tombola drew strong support and raised £412 for the cancer charity. Earlier in the summer, June and July saw a Strawberry Afternoon Tea and the annual parish barbecue, which contributed £200 and £700 respectively to church funds.
Behind the scenes, the parish Social Planning Group has been hard at work curating a thoughtful mix of activities that both strengthen community ties and support important initiatives. Their efforts have helped ensure each gathering offers a warm welcome, good conversation and refreshments — alongside tangible benefits for the parish and those in need.
The calendar continues to offer something for everyone, with a fun quiz on 11 October inviting parishioners and friends to test their general knowledge in a friendly, social atmosphere.
The parish extends sincere thanks to the many volunteers who plan, bake, set up, serve, tidy and run stalls — along with those who donate prizes and spread the word. Without their generosity of time and talent, none of this would be possible.
St Henry Morse’s recent events are a heartening sign of a community flourishing in fellowship and service — living out faith in practical ways that make a difference locally and beyond.
