SAINT AUGUSTINE OF ENGLAND CATHOLIC CHURCH 1 Herbert Road, Solihull, B91 3QE 0121 705 0228 www.staugustinesolihull.org.uk admin@staugustinesolihull.org.uk Registered charity No. 234216 Fr Dominic Kavanagh Fr Sean McTernan ELEVENTH SUNDAY OF THE YEAR C 13th JUNE 2010 Dear Parishioners, ‘Christ, the forgiver of sins. We are all sinners and come to Christ for forgiveness. It is our faith in Christ’s saving power rather than in any observance of the law, which brings us pardon for our sins. Forgiveness is given to those who love and if we love Christ then we live a life of peace with God.’(Pope John Sunday Missal). We welcome into the family of the Church baby Summer Elle Ladbroke who was recently baptised; and baby Gabriel Joseph Rickard who is to be baptised this Sunday. The next two baptismal preparation evenings will take place on Wednesday 7th and Wednesday 14th July at 8.00pm in the Presbytery. Please pray for our children from Saint Augustine’s School who will make their First Holy Communion next Saturday afternoon at 2.30pm.We also look forward to celebrating the Sacrament of Confirmation with our young Parishioners on Wednesday 23rd June at 7.00pm. The Piety Stall has a lovely selection of cards and gifts for both First Holy Communion and Confirmation. Thank you for your generous response to last weekend’s collection for the Little Sisters of the Poor. Thank you also for your support of our joint Summer Fete with Saint Augustine’s School. Please remember that we are having a Garden Party on Saturday 17th July in the Presbytery Gardens. Once again, we would welcome your generous support. Raffle Tickets are now available and we would be grateful if you would distribute and sell them. The Summer edition of the Parish magazine is also available this weekend.

We pray that Mary will guide your priests to follow her own words, “Do whatever He tells you” (Jn 2:5). May your priests have the heart of St. Joseph, Mary’s most chaste spouse. May the Blessed Mother’s own pierced heart inspire them to embrace all who suffer at the foot of the cross. May your priests be holy, filled with the fire of your love seeking nothing but your greater glory and the salvation of souls. Amen. Saint John Vianney, pray for us. Saint Richard of Chichester 16th June Thanks be to you, our Lord Jesus Christ, for all the benefits which you have given us, for all the pains and insults which you have borne for us. Most merciful Redeemer, Friend and Brother, may we know you more clearly, love you more dearly, and follow you more nearly, day by day. Amen. Please pray for: Kevin O’Connor who died recently ;( Requiem Mass Monday 21st June, 10.00am). Also Tadeus Czubar, Sarah Ann Lenaghan, Margaret Quirke, Emily Murphy, Eileen Hallam, Catherine Chandler, whose anniversaries are at this time.
