Lent at St Joseph’s

NB. Please note certain changes below – in BOLD AND CAPITAL LETTERS due to danger of contracting the coronavirus.

LENTEN CHARITIES 2020(as agreed by the PPC)

Our chosen home charity is The Bournemouth Oratory, to support their charitable work in feeding over 80 homeless and rough sleepers in the area daily. 
Our overseas charities this year will be Akanani(Build together) and Lerato(Love) ecumenical projects initiated by the Tshwane Leadership Foundation (TLF).  Both projects seek to address some of the social issues in the inner city of Pretoria, the Capital city of South Africa.  More info in future bulletins.

Our 2nd Collections during Lent, our Parish Lunch , and our Friday Lenten Lunches are all fund-raisers for these projects.  Parish Groups are asked to start thinking now of their own fund-raising ideas.

NB. OUR FRIDAY LENTEN LUNCHES ARE SUSPENDED UNDER FURTHER NOTICE.

We have Stations of the Cross every Friday during Lent –  NOW AFTER 10AM MASS ONLY.  All are encouraged to attend.
