The new school term at St. Clare's has begun. And in the first week that out teachers and boys and girls were back  Holy Mass was celebrated to ask God's blessing on the School Year.

This weekend we have celebrated 1 wedding and 2 baptisms. On Saturday Dr. Joe Chesworth and Dr Brigit Cooke where married in a Nuptial Mass in which Rev Stephen Poxon, Methodist Minister and frind of the groom's family, participated.

For many the Feast of Our Lady's Assumption is the high-point of summer. This year, as the Assumption fell on a Sunday, our Lady's statue in church was made a little more promient, to bring it to the attention of the congregation. A statue of our Lady was also placed in the church entrance for the feast.
