Pastoral Care and Mission to the Local Community
In 1998 a Pastoral Care Scheme was developed: at present over 30 people are involved in its work. The care offered varies according to need, and is facilitated by our Parish Worker.- Eucharist Assistants take the Blessed Sacrament from the Sunday Parish
Eucharist, to both individuals, and residents in nearby nursing and
residential homes. Non-eucharistic services are also conducted, and other
alternative forms of outreach are offered.
- The lonely, infirm and housebound are visited regularly.
In all of this there is abundant evidence that the Holy Spirit is renewing a church in its desire to serve and, in the words of St. Paul, "there is a confidence that God who began this good work will see it brought to completion" (Phil 1:6)
