Dear Parishioners,

The children of Notre Dame du Rosaire have created a beautiful Our Lady of the Rosary calendar for 2027. As you can see from the accompanying images, they have worked so hard on their artwork and we are very proud of the results! If you would like to purchase a calendar, please follow the link below and complete the order form. We will then arrange to get your calendar to you.

Order here: https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/m5fuX0NdN3

We may also sell some calendars at the back of the church later in the year, but ordering in advance will guarantee you a copy. All money raised will go towards supporting our school.

Thank you for your generosity and continued support.

A parishioner is seeking a room to let. This is for a catholic lady who is returning to the island in Mid-November. Please if anyone has a spare room available or does know of one please do contact the parish office in the first instance. Thank you so much.

The new Nov/Dec double edition bible alive and November day by day is now in the box at the repository in St Joseph’s Church.

Payment can be placed in the money box on the wall in the church porch or by using the Dona Machines.

Changes have been made to the Disclosure and Barring Services Update Service (DBS), to which many volunteers already subscribe. To keep DBS Certificates up to date the Update Service are sending emails to volunteers 30 days before their certificates are due for renewal, dates are based on your joining date. This email will ask volunteers to access their Update Service Account and confirm. In preparation for this change DBS advises volunteers to check that the email address attached to their subscription is the correct email address. For those who confirm, this request will be repeated annually. If no confirmation is made, their volunteer subscription will automatically be cancelled. Volunteers who do not renew their subscription will not be able to keep their DBS certificate(s) up to date and organisations will not be able to check them. They will need to reapply for a DBS as per a new applicant if they need one in the future. It is the policy of the Catholic Church to renew DBS checks every 3 years, this is a separate requirement to that of the DBS in renewing the Update Service subscription on an annual basis. We recommend writing the date of your renewal on a calendar or dairy. Please do check your emails as they may automatically go into your junk or Scam mailbox, your DBS Certificate is personal to you, so if you have a query you can ring the DBS on 0300 020 0190 or enquires to www.gov.uk Click for Update Service. Thank you.

Confirmation preparation starts in January for young people in Year 8 and above who would like to be confirmed in 2028, or don’t necessarily want to be confirmed but just want to explore more about their faith.
