Social

Building Our Parish Community

Sharon Boylett

The social ministry crosses into the other ministries in varying degrees.

It coordinates regular parish activities, for example coffee after weekend masses, the coffee hub on Wednesday and the buying of refreshments including chocolate for birthdays etc.

There is a WhatsApp group for parishioners who are happy to help at various social activities and share ideas.

Members advise on the fabric of the hall especially as the hall is now available for public hire. This includes following hygiene and health and safety regulations.
