Theme of today’s Mass: “Jesus in our midst”: To him the whole world is like a grain of dust that tips the scales or the morning dew that falls. Yet he loves all that exists and he comes to dwell with sinners.

Finances: Collection: 27th October: £83.01. Candles: £2.00, Requiem donation: £150.00. Many thanks. (Cheques to be made payable to: St Gregory’s RC Church)
Grave Blessing: Today’s Grave Blessing will take place at Barrow Cemetery. If you would like Fr John to bless the grave of any of your dear departed, please join him at the entrance to the cemetery at 2.00pm and accompany him to the grave in question. Next Sunday’s Blessing will be at Sileby Cemetery.
Masses for the Dead: During November we remember the Holy Souls at every Mass. If you would like to include someone in the intentions of the Mass, please use one of the “Month of the Holy Souls” envelopes at the back of church. Simply write the name(s) on a slip of paper, place the slip in the envelope, seal the envelope and place it in the basket in front of the altar. Please do not put any money in these envelopes.
If you would like a Mass to be celebrated on a particular day, please use the Mass Intentions envelopes as usual, indicating when and where you would like the Mass to be said. Please be aware that there are always many requests for Masses at this time of the year and it may not always be possible to secure your preferred date unless you are prepared to “share” with someone else.
Remembrance Sunday: This will be celebrated next Sunday. Parishioners are invited to write the names of those who died in or as a result of war on a card (available at the back of church) and place this in the basket at the back of church before Mass. Additional details may be added if you so wish. The basket will be brought up to the altar at the Offertory.
